New Stockport HQ for car hire firm Vehicle Consulting

Car and van leasing firm Vehicle Consulting has established a new HQ in Stockport.

The company, which also offers personal contract hire services, has moved its South Manchester team to Acorn Business Park in Stockport with support from NatWest.

Vehicle Consulting employs a team of 16 at its new head office but expects to create new jobs in the future.

Lee Wolstenholme, the firm’s sales director, said: “As an independent business vehicle leasing and personal contract hire company with backing from all major car manufacturers, we are able to offer the best deals on UK-supplied cars, meaning greater choice for customers.

“We decided to move offices to enable business growth and further develop staff wellbeing, our new base providing greater amenities along with better transport links for our team, customers and other visitors.”

Established more than 20 years ago, Vehicle Consulting facilitates car and van leasing for both corporate and private customers across the UK. The firm said it has delivered tens of thousands of vehicles to date, including crossovers, estates, superminis, hatchbacks, 4×4 SUVs, saloons, vans and pickup trucks.

To secure the funding to support the move, sales director Lee and Vehicle Consulting MD Simeon Briggs turned to Adam Husband, a senior relationship manager with NatWest, for support.

Simeon commented: “We had to move quite quickly once we found the premises we wanted and Adam was very helpful in making sure we had what we need to complete the purchase.”

Discussing the deal, Adam said: “The new head office demonstrates the management team’s commitment to growing the business for a sustainable future and we wish the business every success going forward.”
