AutoProtect Group has announced the appointment of Mike Edwards as chief revenue officer.

This move marks a strategic step forward for the business, unifying sales and marketing under a cohesive approach while leveraging group-wide synergies to drive growth.

Expanding his role beyond dealership distribution, Edwards will now oversee all revenue-generating activities across AutoProtect Group’s diverse distribution channels while continuing to lead the group’s marketing strategy, building on his track record of strengthening and expanding retailer relationships.
