Hankey brings a 30-year background in the remarketing industry in the UK and Europe as well as stints in Australia and New Zealand. 

He will head up Aston Barclay’s new-look sales team, which includes head of business development Nick Franklin and head of vehicle sales Gordon Cockle who are focused on welcoming new dealer and fleet vendors to its auction network.    

Hankey will also play an active role in helping Aston Barclay look after its existing customers, which have grown in number over the past two years.  

“We have invested in Mark as he is one of the most highly experienced remarketing sales directors in the industry at a time of ambitious growth for our business. We would like to welcome him to the Aston Barclay family,” said Martin Potter, Aston Barclay’s chief customer officer.    

Mark Hankey commented: “Aston Barclay has been at the forefront of the remarketing industry’s online revolution and was ahead of the digital curve when the industry went into lockdown which has served the business well. It’s great to be back working in the UK remarketing industry where I have so many great friends and contacts and I look forward to getting started.”
