Mr Bowkett joins EurotaxGlass’s from Masterlease’s Full Service Leasing and Auto Finance Division where he last held the position of group CFO leasing and auto finance. Prior to this, he spent four years at MG Rover Group as head of commercial development and head of UK commercial finance, responsible for Residual Value management and the daily rental business.

In his new role, Mr Bowkett will be based in the UK and will work closely with the editorial teams in each country to ensure the quality and consistency of EurotaxGlass’s valuations across the 30 markets in which the company operates, as well as in each industry sector, with his own experience and knowledge matching Glass’s increasing focus on the leasing business.

Steffen Schick, managing director of EurotaxGlass’s Global Services, commented: 'We are delighted to welcome Dean to EurotaxGlass’s and believe his experience in vehicle financing, remarketing, residual value management and policies will prove invaluable to our team.'
