Ian became Commercial Director in April 2018. He first joined Autotrader as Director, Manufacturer and Agency at the start of 2017.

His roles have spanned the entire ecosystem. From working internationally at the Renault-Nissan head office in Paris, to director roles at OEM national sales companies for both Renault and Volkswagen group, all the way through to running his first single retailer site in London and then running an AM10 retailer group.

Ian studied European Studies (Economics, Politics, German and French) at Loughborough University.
