Asset Finance Sales Manager
CurrentFollowing the decision by Briggs Equipment UK Ltd (Briggs) to exit the vendor relationship with GE Capital and use their own capital resources to fund the leasing book, I have been given the opportunity to transfer to Briggs and continue to support the sales and marketing of the Hyster fork lift truck brand. This is a role I have enjoyed since 2005, initially working with Barloworld Finance Ltd and latterly with GE Capital.My primary function is to support the Briggs sales team in the structuring and closing of lease transactions, helping to grow profitable sales volume. The role requires a high level of direct customer contact and the ability to quickly build solid relationships, negotiate terms and conditions and ongoing care and support over the lifetime of an agreement.Reporting directly to the CFO, I am also responsible for growing additional new business volumes with our customers by leasing assets other than fork lift trucks - but always with the objective of strengthening our customer relationship and growing the fork truck fleet park. The key skills required are credit & asset risk evaluation, pricing and contract negotiation.
