Napleton joins the sales and marketing team where he will oversee business partner marketing across the fleet and lease, insurance and specialist vehicle sectors. 

He will report to Andre May, Autoglass sales & marketing director, while head of marketing Marta González Zuinaga is on maternity leave.
