Manheim Auctions strengthens dedicated commercial vehicle team

Manheim Auctions has strengthened its dedicated commercial vehicle management teams in Leeds, Gloucester, Haydock, Colchester and Washington.

James Davis has been appointed to the new role of general manager, Commercial Vehicle Operations for Manheim’s three auction centres dedicated solely to commercial vehicles at Leeds, Gloucester and Haydock.

At Leeds Commercials, Steve Barlow replaces the Tony Long as auction centre manager following Long’s appointment as senior operations manager, with direct responsibility for the development of key operational projects within Manheim Auctions.

At Colchester, Richard Farrar takes up the newly created, strategic role of car and commercial vehicle manager focusing on car, van, truck and plant vendors with the key responsibilities of developing auction sales programmes. Stuart Peak replaces Farrar as commercial vehicle manager.

Meanwhile at Washington, Chris Jarvis has been appointed as commercial vehicle manager with responsibility for the fortnightly van and monthly truck and plant auction sale programmes.

When it comes to disposing of cars and commercial vehicles, auctions have long been regarded as the most efficient method. However, it’s important fleets understand how they operate as well as what’s happening in the marketplace. Visit the Fleet News remarketing section to find out more.
