Manheim recruits ex-Mazda UK used car remarketing manager

Manheim has appointed Tamara Brown as corporate and manufacturer sales director.

Brown joins Manheim from her role as used car and remarketing manager for Mazda UK, winner of the Motor Trader Quality Approved Car Network Award in 2016.

At Mazda she held dealer facing roles in sales and franchising and was instrumental in developing the used car field team, delivering year on year improvements in dealer used car profitability.

She also managed the process for refurbishment, pricing and sale of all Mazda UK used cars, launching the Mazda national used car locator. Prior to joining Mazda in 2002, Brown worked with Ford Credit Europe.

Pete Bell, MD of Manheim, said: “Tamara joins an experienced and well-respected sales team, which, combined with her extensive and proven expertise in the sector will set her up for success.”

“She brings with her a wealth of knowledge of the remarketing space, and her dealer-facing experience, and manufacturer knowledge will be invaluable as part of our future plans to build on the outstanding results we are already achieving. We wish Hayley all the best with her maternity leave, and are delighted to welcome Tamara to the team.”
