Vehicle leasing company launches second site

Select Car Leasing’s team in the West Midlands is expanding with the opening of an office in Leamington Spa.

Select Car Leasing is one of the UK’s largest independent specialists for car and van leasing and has offices across the UK.

The West Midlands site, headquartered in Romsley near Bromsgrove, was opened in October 2021.

And now Select West Midlands has cut the ribbon on a second premises in the Tachbrook Park business district.

It takes the number of Select staff in the West Midlands from 10 to 12, with the latest recruits being leasing specialists Hugh Roberts and Dan Tissington.

Stephen Hunt, principal at the Select West Midlands Office, says the compact new office also has scope for further growth.

He said: “We’re delighted to be able to build on our success in the West Midlands by opening this new office in Leamington Spa.

“And to do this on the first anniversary of our own opening means the timing is perfect.

“The car leasing industry has faced some real challenges in recent months, not least when it comes to the availability of vehicles. But, in a way, we’ve actually enjoyed the test and there’s now a real sense of optimism at Select West Midlands.

“Everything we’re hearing, from key figures in the industry, suggests that by the beginning of next year we’ll have returned to normality in terms of supply. And this new investment illustrates our commitment as we look to the future.”

Select Car Leasing West Midlands was born from SSE Vehicle Management Ltd, founded by Steven Gates and Stephen Hunt, which is now an Appointed Representative of Select.

Graham Conway, managing director of Select Car Leasing, said: “It’s fantastic to see our West Midlands Office expanding while also taking-on new members of staff, and we’d like to congratulate Steven Gates, Stephen Hunt and their entire team.

“As a company, Select is targeting growth across the board over the next twelve months, and that includes our regional Appointed Representatives, as we look forward to an exciting new market in 2023.”
