JCT600 has appointed Paul Noon as head of fleet for its Volkswagen division as the business aims to realise “ambitious sales growth aspirations”.

Noon joins JCT600 from RMB Automotive in Stockton where he worked as corporate sales manager having previously spent 11 years at Benfield Motor Group, latterly as group corporate sales manager. 

Prior to that, he had worked as purchasing manager for JCT600 Contracts for 10 years.

In his new role, Noon will be based at JCT600’s fleet hub at Volkswagen Bradford, but will be responsible for fleet operations at all of the group’s Volkswagen sites.

He said: “After a 12 year absence, I was very keen to come ‘home’ to JCT600 which, despite having undergone many changes, has retained its strong family ethos and commitment to putting the customer first. 

“It’s also a great opportunity to support the fleet division’s ambitious sales growth aspirations by maximising the massive opportunities provided by the Volkswagen range of vehicles while providing our customers with a ‘best place to shop’ experience on every occasion.”

Neill Richards, group fleet sales director for JCT600, said:  “It’s great to have Paul back at JCT600. With his extensive experience in the sector, he will be a valuable addition to the team as we continue to grow our fleet division.”

Bradford-based JCT600 is a family business with 50 dealerships selling 18 brands, including: Aston Martin, Audi, Bentley, BMW/MINI, Ferrari, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Vauxhall and Volkswagen.

The group now employs a workforce of 2,300 people.
