Meet Andy
Andy has over 25 years’ experience in the car rental industry, having held senior positions with major international car rental brands across the United Kingdom (UK), Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Asian Pacific (APAC) regions.
After the sale of his business in New Zealand, Andy went into a senior sales role within the car rental software industry, running sales teams across UK, USA and Australia. He then moved back to UK and headed up Global Sales and Partnerships for another well know car rental software brand.
This is Andy’s second stint with the Jonday Team having worked with Keith and the team some 12 years ago when the company was the second largest Thrifty Franchise in Australia. Today, Andy is responsible for growing Everything Fleet’s Partnership portfolio within the Online Travel Agency (OTA). As Andy puts it:
“….this is a key area for Everything Fleet to grow its brand having transition out of its successful Thrifty Car Rental franchise business…it is not just partnering up but putting partner programs in place to help the relationship grow and increase revenues”.
Andy, tell us a bit about yourself…
What do you love most about your job?
I love helping brands grows their business, it’s always been a strong point of mine given my time in the industry and contacts I have made over the past 25+ years.
What inspired you to join the EF team again?
Easy really — coming into a Green Field business, with a blank canvas, is what I absolutely love.
What is your favourite memory from working with the Jonday team 12+ years ago?
Previously I was an Area Manager in operations, some changes in personal have occurred, but really, it’s the same team so when the opportunity arose to work with everyone again under a new brand, it was an easy decision for me to come back!
The vision Keith had back then when we were Thrifty Car Rental and the vision he has today with the new brand Everything Fleet is amazing…. and not having to deal with difficulties from corporate head office is an extra bonus!
What would your perfect weekend look like?
Growing revenue and partners 😊
What’s something surprising that not many people know about you?
I am a very good Darts player….
What is your Favorite road trip in Australia and why?
This is a hard question, as there are so many…. any road that leads to a boat so I can go fishing, I guess.
