Owner and Managing Director
David founded Willow Leasing in late 2018, starting out from his home before the business quickly outgrew the kitchen table. The team moved into their Bawtry office in January 2020 and haven't looked back since much to the relief of his partner, Laura.
As Managing Director, David's focus is on securing the best leasing rates through strong funder relationships, while making sure the team has the tools, technology and support to deliver a genuinely great experience for every customer.
David's career in the motor industry stretches back to April 2004, when he started as a Sales Executive at a Renault dealership in Yorkshire. He progressed through the ranks to General Manager, running multiple Renault and Nissan sites before taking the leap to set up Willow Leasing.
His favourite thing about Willow? The people. "I'm really proud of the team we've built. We work hard but we genuinely enjoy what we do — the office has a great energy and I think that comes through in the service we give our customers."
The car David drives electric and is a firm convert to the technology. An Aston Martin fan at heart, his dream car remains the iconic DB-S.
