I’m the newest member of the head-office team here in the UK.  Although I’m a qualified bookkeeper, my previous experience in automotive was running company car fleets.

My biggest fleet was over 100 vehicles from brands like BMW, Mercedes-Benz, VW and Vauxhall.

I’ve now joined Anne’s team and will support our employees across Europe with their general enquiries about all things finance.  When I’m not working, you’ll find me looking after my family and making sure we all stay fit, active and healthy.

I’m looking forward to getting to know the AMS teams and working with our partner agencies across Europe for payroll salary and tax compliance purposes.

Finance is exciting. In fact, I’m responsible for our commercial relationship with payroll partners, lawyers and tax specialist in over 30 markets.

AMS always complies with the local labour code in the countries in which we operate and employee tax is always paid locally.

I am also here to support our employees with any, and I mean any, questions they have concerning their tax and social payments.

Here’s a bold statement: I don’t think anyone else knows as much as we do about operating a fully compliant business across so many markets!

Similar to Portugal, we employee over 20 automotive specialists across the Scandinavian region.

I head the team helping BMW dealers sell more used cars through the BMW Premium Selection and MINI NEXT used car programmes.

We also offer various automotive services and employ many people across the region in specialist positions. This includes the regional Business Sales team working with Opel dealers and small
business customers.

We are also investigating our own Fleet Service Centre to help our manufacturer clients manage their own vehicle fleets.

We are being innovative in our thinking and pushing the boundaries of what partners like ours
provide.

AMS is a big company operating in multi-markets supporting a wide range of specialist automotive assignments. However, we would like you to think of us a small business.

Everything we do revolves around supporting our clients and we always get this right. If we didn’t, I wouldn’t sleep at night.

We are very flexible with the services and solutions we offer. We don’t need shareholder approvals to invest, we just do it. In fact, we are not funded by banks or credit facilities, we reinvest our profits back in our business and our people.

If you put your faith in AMS, I can assure that we’ll achieve the objectives you set for us.

While we employee specialist teams on long-term projects, used car development, profit improvement and sales makers, and we also employ many people on specialist assignments – Brand
Managers, Dealer Marketing Specialists, CRM, Press Relations, Pool Car Management, Electric Vehicle Specialists – the list is growing.

I head up this important part of our business. It’s my job to add great people to our team, then look after these employees, agree on KPI targets with our clients and help our people achieve their
objectives.

More than simple outsourcing (prohibited in many European markets), AMS people deliver a specialist service or specific assignments. I make sure we comply with the various local labour codes
in respect of off-headcount employees, and that we deliver a measurable service, as opposed to a ‘hired hand’ we never speak with.

I get to engage with a network of candidates in many countries to participate in the various teams and special events we run for our people. If you join AMS, you join the family!

I joined AMS as Director of Automotive Innovation. Then we innovated, we set up a programme for Opel across Europe to help them sell cars and commercial vehicles to small businesses. I now run this team of over 30 sales makers.

Small businesses are loyal, and this make them profitable – they want mobility solutions and great after-care service. Our team work with dealers to increase sales activity and we visit potential
buyers with together with dealers and sometimes on our own. We are selling a lot of vehicles.

Providing dedicated direct sales specialists for manufacturers is innovative: it’s the way the business of selling is changing, and we are leading the way.

If you are thinking about joining my team of B2B Managers, have a look at what the job involves with the “Video Blog” on the Join Us page.

I’m French and (despite the weather!) I have been living in the UK for many years.

I’ve recently been promoted to look after our expanding French business. We employ 7 B2B Managers for Opel in France, and various specialists providing dedicated services to a number of
other clients.

We have just launched the Rhino VIP Event in France, and you can see some people buying cars on our Instagram page. Our VIP Customers enjoy these special events, and dealers see some fantastic results in just a few days.

We are actively developing new business in France – if you would like to call me to discuss your requirements, I’d be delighted to speak with you, in French or English.

We employ over 20 automotive specialists in Portugal for various brands on a wide range of assignments. Working with Gareth, I coordinate operations locally.

I’m assigned to BMW on the Premium Selection and MINI NEXT used car programmes. I have a team of 4 dedicated to helping dealers sell more cars and improve profits. I think we have the most successful used car programmes in Portugal.

We have recently launched the Rhino VIP Event and this is selling a lot of cars. We also helped UK sales video provider CitNOW launch their products with BMW Portugal. In fact, we brought video to Portugal before any other brand had even considered using it.

Congratulations to BMW for being the first Brand to launch video as part of the dealer sales process.
