RAC appoints Jenny Powley to grow corporate partnerships
The RAC has appointed one of the UK auto industry’s most respected sales directors to lead its growing corporate partnerships division.
Former sales director at Allstar, Jenny Powley takes up the same role in corporate partnerships at the RAC and will play a central part in the strategic development and delivery of the Business Services division, which represents more than five million motorists.
Powley, an expert in dealing with large and often complex organisations with a variety of needs both nationally and internationally, will report into Director of business services David Aldridge.
She said: “The UK has a thriving motor industry within all segments of the market from large corporates to SMEs and, now more than ever, it is vital they are supported by partners delivering the most effective and efficient outcomes.”
“The RAC is committed to being the market leader and is already working with outstanding brands and organisations, which is part of the company’s innovative and exciting approach to establishing and growing relationships.”
“Throughout my career, I have looked to create sustainable solutions to support customers and achieve business objectives and, with the dedicated team we have in place across the RAC, I look forward to being kept busy doing just that for the foreseeable future.”
David Aldridge said: “Having Jenny on board is a real coup for the RAC. Her expertise in auto industry sales and marketing as well as superb client management and service delivery means she is second-to-none.”
“The fact we are continually attracting such talent is testimony to the work being put in by the teams on the ground and we look forward to developing our teams and services even further.”
Powley is joined in her role by new account team members, including former Copart account manager Martyn Buchan and Martin Breen, a formed DHL and JLR manager, who will work across the country with clients such as Tesco, Hyundai and British Gas.

Today it has more than eight million members and is one of the UK’s most progressive motoring organisations, providing services for both private and business motorists.

The RAC is committed to making motoring easier, safer, more affordable and more enjoyable for drivers and road users.
The RAC is the motorist’s champion and campaigns to support the interests of its members and UK drivers at a national level. This includes voicing concerns about the increasing cost of motoring, particularly the price of fuel and the high level of tax levied on it, advancing levels of road safety, and supporting the needs of all drivers, from young to old.
The RAC’s annual Report on Motoring – first published in 1989 – is one of a kind and provides a clear insight into the concerns and issues facing today’s motorists.
