A former Aston Barclay executive is heading a new remarketing venture.

Fleet services company Hudson Kapel Group has launched a new business, HK Remarketing, and has appointed former Aston Barclay sales and marketing director Alan Henson to lead its development.

As director, Henson is tasked with developing its de-fleet and systems proposition by bringing together the varied existing facets of the Hudson Kapel Group and combining them with fresh innovations.

Henson said: "These are exciting times for the vehicle remarketing sector, we are seeing rapid change in the way inventory holders are taking vehicles to market and there is a real opportunity to introduce a ground breaking proposition that will shape the future of vehicle remarketing."

In his career Henson has also held management positions with RL Polk & Co, Glass’s Guide and RAC Motoring Services.
