Kerry Clark joins from within the Volkswagen Group and will look to ensure that Skoda maximises its corporate sales offering across the country under her new role. Meanwhile, Eric Ekins and Hannah Cockayne will be overseeing Midlands & Northern Ireland and London & Home Counties respectively, supporting the brand to expand it throughout the UK.

The appointments coincide with recent figures showing corporate and SME (small and medium enterprises) sales up 24.9 per cent compared to 2014.

Patrick McGillycuddy, head of fleet at Skoda UK, commented: “Kerry, Eric and Hannah have bolstered our fleet sales operation at this crucial time. They bring a wealth of experience to the Skoda brand, which will ensure that our customer-focused, knowledgeable team is stronger than ever and continues to help our fleet sales soar.”
