FCA appoints new fleet director
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has appointed Andrew Waite as fleet and remarketing director, replacing Francis Bleasdale who has moved to another role within the company.
Andrew Waite has already taken up the role.
Formerly national sales manager for Fiat Professional, since last June, Waite is already serving in the new role, responsible for activities across the Alfa Romeo, Jeep, Fiat, Abarth and Fiat Professional brands, as well as its used car strategy, including sales, stock and mix targets.
Bleasdale, who has served as fleet and used car director since August 2014, oversaw almost four years of re-inventing FCA’s corporate infrastructure, streamlining the business to be easier to deal with and looking at cross-selling opportunities across its brands as key products including the Fiat Tipo and Fullback, Jeep Compass and Renegade, Alfa Romeo Giulia and Stelvio came to market.
His new position, within FCA, will be confirmed over the coming weeks.
