Warranty Solutions Group (WSG) has strengthened its senior management team with the appointment Neil Monks, as its new group commercial director.

Monks has worked at the highest level within WMS Group, LeasePlan and BT and has a track record of driving sales and profitability through innovation, new business and delivering business efficiencies.

He steps up from his position as sales & customer service director of WMS Group where he was responsible for managing those activities as WMS was integrated in to its new parent Opteven.

Neil commented: “WSG has big ambitions and has tremendous entrepreneurial business with fabulous people and we are very privileged to have great customers. The business is producing significant growth, it understands and listens to its customers, then acts swiftly. The next few years will, in my opinion, bring great opportunities and challenges alike.”

Steph Newbery, group director of WSG said: “Neil’s impressive industry experience will serve the business well in the coming years, combined with a clearly defined strategy to keep WSG growing and investing in both its people and customers.

“WSG will continually invest in its people and bring new talent into the business to help deliver market-leading innovative products and services to customers.”

WSG is also the parent company of MotorGuard Warranties, Freedom Warranty, Freedom Warranties and Warranty Professionals.
