Vehicle management company Total Motion has restructured its board with the appointments of financial director Claire Timms and operations director Jayne Stansfield.

The new directors join Simon Hill, managing director and the business’s founder, on the board.

Hill said: “Appointing Jayne and Claire as directors means our board is now two-thirds female, reflecting Total Motion’s continued commitment to diversity and gender equality.”

Stansfield has been with Total Motion for just over a year having previously worked at an auction house, while Timms, whose background is in construction, joined the company last October.

Total Motion, based at Meridian Business Park in Leicester, has seen profit margin grow by 3% and volumes increase by 9% over the past 12 months.

The company was ranked as the 24th largest contract hire company in last year’s FN50 listing, with a risk fleet of 8,897 vehicles (cars: 4,782/ vans: 4,115), a 21% increase on the previous year.

The business is directly responsible for more than 25,000 drivers in 14 countries on behalf of more than 4,000 clients.

Its fleet management consultancy service supports clients with a combined fleet size in excess of 460,000 globally.

The company has featured for three successive years among the UK’s 1,000 Most Dynamic SMEs, as published by the London Stock Exchange.

Total Motion has also been named 2018 Leicester Mercury Company of the Year in the Leicester Mercury Business Awards.
