Internationally renowned motor group JCT 600, has appointed Frank Turner as national broker and corporate accounts manager, responsible for the company’s growing fleet operation.

With over 26 years experience in the motor trade, Turner has worked for big names including Lex Leasing, Custom Fleet and Ogilvie Fleet.

In his new role, Turner will be responsible for managing, growing and maxmimising broker and fleet sales for JCT 600, by developing long-term relationships with brokers and fleet companies – as well as SMEs and local businesses – while also developing spot volume opportunities.

Neill Richards, fleet sales director of JCT 600, said: “Over the last 18 months, we have seen significant demand for our fleet services with customers responding well to our transparent approach – as part of a major group incorporating a wide range of brands, we are able to provide balanced car cost comparisons, demo both cars and give customers expert advice.

“Frank is a welcome and extremely experienced new member of the team whose recruitment has completed our transition into a single national fleet division, putting us in a strong position for future growth.”

As a company, JCT 600 focuses on luxurious and executive cars from Mercedes, BMW, Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, Bentley and Maserati.

The experience, knowledge and company values make them an SME fleet manager’s favourite, and the appointment of Frank Turner is set to make the company the default choice for high-end and luxury leasing.

Turner added: “I share JCT 600’s values; it is a dynamic and success-focused company which is committed to delivering best in class customer service and has retained its family values. There is a real passion to drive the business forward and the vision to develop into new areas of work as well as benefitting from having industry-leading facilities.”
