DAVID Godfrey has joined the Leasys’ Broker team to support the significant growth and development in this channel over the past few years.
Godfrey’s skills and experience will enable the business to provide a greater level of service to the ‘Leasys approved’ broker partners and also help build on the current platform in this very important sector of the market.
He was most recently with Arval on its Hyundai white label programme, training retailers and working on maximising contract hire business via the retailer network. This involved offering bespoke campaigns to the retailer network fleet teams, which fed the broker network.
Godfrey previously represented RCI Financial services (for Nissan Finance) managing the Affinity programme team and reaching record sales for the channel. He has also represented FCA (via TTL Automotive) as part of its area SME/Fleet team.
Leasys has continued its record of success rising to 14th position in the FN50 2021 list of the UK’s biggest and most successful contract hire and leasing companies. Five years of consecutive growth has seen Leasys rise two places in the rankings.

This year the contract hire division of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles Bank (FCA Bank) has introduced a slew of new products which has propelled its continued growth. In spite of the challenges 2021 has thrown, Leasys UK has grown by 11.5% over the last year, taking its fleet size to 18,361 vehicles, its largest in history.
Its success is in part down to the introduction of innovative products such as Leasys Miles, based on a pay-as-you-go concept, giving drivers the option to pay a low monthly rental for the vehicle and a fixed cost per mile for the mileage. Now available on the all-new, all-electric Fiat 500 and the Maserati range, this product ensures that the company continues to offer relevant products that appeal to vehicle buying consumers.
The new Leasys Unlimited programme plays a key part within its new electrification strategy, providing long-term rentals dedicated to hybrid and electric models. Vehicles include the all-electric New 500 and Jeep Renegade 4xe.
Another new product, launched at the end of 2020, is Clickar. This allows retailers and motor traders an easier and faster way to purchase pre-owned vehicles online, without added costs, in a simple and hassle free way.
Sebastiano Fedrigo, managing director Leasys UK commented; “The achievements of the past year, including the introduction of a range of new products, has helped cement Leasys’ success and growth by offering customers and retailers innovative solutions to meet their evolving needs.
“The expansion of Leasys Miles, the launch of Clickar and the introduction of Leasys Unlimited all within 2021 is just the start. Growing for five years in a row clearly poses its challenges, which we are addressing by increasing the team and working more efficiently with our suppliers and partners. With the creation of Stellantis, we feel even more confident of our capacity to grow further in the years ahead”.
