Arval has appointed a new sales director for its fuel and fleet card.

Jenny Powley, who was director for the large corporate division at Arval moves into the new position with immediate effect.

Arval is currently developing additional capabilities for its cards, allowing companies to budget their expenses and drivers to purchase a number of vehicle-related services.

Powley will take responsibility for Arval’s fuel and fleet cards covering both sales and customer service delivery.

“I am delighted to move into this role at a time when fuel and fleet cards have never been more important for companies in managing and reducing their costs," she said.

"This is a period when we expect new technology to bring further customer benefit, providing a payment mechanism that offers more services, convenience, control and cost savings.”
