VW Appoint Michael O’Shea New UK Fleet Sales Manager
Following Volkswagen’s UK Fleet Sales Manager, Matthew Bowden, moving to the Commercial Vehicles brand, Volkswagen are pleased to announce Michael O’Shea, currently Product Marketing Manager for small cars, as his successor.
Michael brings a wealth of product development experience as well as a thorough knowledge of the relationship between Volkswagen UK and the factory in Wolfsburg, Germany to the role. Michael already has some fleet experience, starting his motor industry career in the late 1990s in Nissan’s fleet department. Having been selected for the position by Vincent Kinner, Head of Fleet Services, Michael will assume his new duties from 14 December.
Vincent Kinner commented: ‘I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with Matthew Bowden over the last few years. He’ll be missed but I’d like to wish him every success in his new role. I am sure Michael will be a huge asset to the fleet department. He brings with him a wealth of valuable experience and a great attitude to work, and my team and I are looking forward to making him very welcome.’
Michael O’Shea added: ‘I’m thoroughly looking forward to my new responsibilities and to building new relationships with business customers and the fleet team. In product marketing we concentrate on Volkswagen’s strong products; in fleet I’ll also get to experience the people who sell these cars on to our business customers.’
Michael is 44 years old; he’s married and lives in Maidenhead, Berkshire, with his wife and three children.
