TATTERSALL SELECTED FOR WIDER NATIONAL FLEET ROLE
26 June 2013
Simon Tattersall, previously ATS Euromaster’s Head of National Truck, has been promoted to a new position which will see him lead the company’s growing portfolio of national fleet business, encompassing its largest car, van and truck customers.
As Head of National Accounts, Tattersall will be responsible for a team of 10 National Account Managers currently managing more than £120 million worth of fleet business annually. ATS Euromaster’s key national accounts range from major leasing, rental and utilities fleets, to some of the country’s most recognised logistics operators, including Eddie Stobart, TNT and Hoyer Group.
Commenting on his appointment, Tattersall says: “As a company we are focused on being easy to do business with and are increasingly supporting national fleets operating a variety of vehicle types, which don’t necessarily match our traditional car/van and truck split.
“As our business grows, it makes sense to approach these key markets as a single identity, and with a consistent message and management approach for our customers.”
Tattersall, 59, joined ATS Euromaster in 2009, bringing significant expertise to the national tyre expert, after 28 years with parent company Michelin. Prior to joining ATS Euromaster, he held a dual role as Business Development Manager for Michelin Fleet Solutions and Sales Manager, responsible for Michelin’s original equipment sales to trailer manufacturers in theUKand Nordic markets.
Tattersall will continue to report to Peter Fairlie, Group Sales Director, and be based at the company’s head office and 24/7 customer service centre in Aston,Birmingham.
