Gofor opens first office in England
Edinburgh-based fleet specialist Gofor has expanded south with a new office in Blackburn and three senior hires to support its UK growth.
The new North West location marks Gofor’s first base in England and will act as a regional hub for its growing client base.
Mark Stuart, Peter Wright and Paul Armstrong join the business development team, bringing more than 40 years’ combined experience in fleet management and EV salary sacrifice.
Mark said: “I’ve known about Gofor for a few years now as they’ve grown within the leasing broker market.
“The opportunity to join them and to be a core part of the next step of their journey is an exciting one; I can’t wait to start meeting our new and prospective customers across the UK in the coming weeks and months”
Iain Bennett, managing director of Gofor, added: “We’re delighted to strengthen our business development team with the appointment of Mark, Paul and Peter.
“Their combined experience and deep understanding of fleet management and EV salary sacrifice will be invaluable as we grow our UK-wide reach.
“This is not just about scale – it’s about supporting our customers with service-led, consultative and effective solutions that will deliver long-term value for their fleets.”
Gofor supports SMEs with proactive fleet solutions, end-to-end management and sustainability-focused EV strategies.
Graham Lesslie, founder and chief executive of Gofor, added: “This is a significant day for Gofor.
“We launched with a goal to build a business that offered customers proactive solutions to help better manage their company vehicles.
“Today, we’re delivering that value to businesses across the UK and by expanding our footprint with a location in England, we’ll be able to strengthen our position as one of the UK’s leading mid-sized vehicle leasing brokers.”
