The platform is led by a team of veterans from finance, fleet, and leasing industries. These include CEO Julian Humphreys, CFO Lisa Edwards, chief commercial officer Mel Goodliffe,

along with chief technology officer John Leightley.

Humphreys stated that MOTOM’s launch was based on research, which highlighted the requirement of a trading platform that enables motor dealers to buy and sell in minutes.

Besides, dealers were looking for an easy-to-use platform, he noted.

“We also found that many wanted additional tools to help their businesses fight back against the wave of disruption in the sector and be assured they are dealing with an independent business,” Humphreys added.
