With a renewed focus on local sales, the national automotive glazing services provider Auto Windscreens has appointed a regional sales team. The team will specifically target local and national fleets, motor dealers, bodyshops, plant operators and insurance agents.

A team of nine Regional Sales Executives have been recruited and are being headed by two Regional Sales Managers – Nigel Porter in the north and Lisa Kavanagh in the south. The team will complement Auto Windscreens’ existing 14-strong sales force of eight national account managers and a telesales team.

Nigel Davies, Sales and Marketing Director, explained: “We have identified a definite gap in the local marketplace for an experienced automotive glazing services company with highly trained technicians. Auto Windscreens has a network of fitting centres throughout the UK and an army of mobile technicians to be able to deliver this sought after service. Having the regional sales team will enable us to do business with the many companies who want to meet us face-to-face.”
