The BVRLA has appointed Simon Tebbutt as Member Services Director, with a remit to improve member engagement and strengthen the association’s training, events and support services.
Tebbutt brings extensive experience in commercial operations and membership organisations, most recently serving as Director of Membership at the National Pharmacy Association. During his time there, he led a significant transformation of member support, introducing digital upgrades to improve the overall member experience. His career also includes roles at Coca-Cola and Camelot, spanning multiple sectors and disciplines.
Commenting on the appointment, BVRLA Chief Executive Toby Poston said: “Simon brings a wealth of commercial experience and a strong trade association track record. His appointment will help us modernise and develop our services, while finding new ways of adding value for our members and the sector beyond.”
Tebbutt added: “I’m incredibly excited to be joining the BVRLA at this crucial time. The sector is dealing with a host of challenges, most notably how to decarbonise fleets of all shapes, sizes and functions. I am looking forward to meeting with as many members as possible to fully understand their pain points and develop ways in which the BVRLA can help, while making it as easy as possible to interact with us.”
The association’s new Member Services Department will be operational from Monday 23 June, with a focus on delivering high-quality support and engagement for members across all areas of the industry.
