A growing Northamptonshire vehicle leasing firm has welcomed another new starter as part of their continued expansion and company investment.
Silverstone Leasing has added three new recruits to its talented team during 2025 so far, with the fourth being latest hire Shane Bicknell.
Shane joins the fold as an account manager, bringing a wealth of industry experience from his previous workplace, another leasing broker, DreamLease.
Shane will work closely with both local and national businesses to deliver Silverstone Leasing’s renowned, award-winning, personal service.
He said: “I am passionate about delivering excellent service and exceeding expectations, and I am always eager to learn new things and improve my performance. I value teamwork, honesty, and innovation, and I strive to contribute to the success and growth of Silverstone Leasing.”
Away from work, Shane is a keen cricketer who rarely misses a chance to get down to the nets. He is also a proud dad of two children and an all-round sports fan.
Silverstone Leasing managing director Scott Norville said: “We’re excited to announce Shane’s appointment, as part of our continued expansion. A true people-person, Shane is passionate about building long-term relationships and prides himself on always going the extra mile for his clients, which we have already seen in the short time that he has been with us.
“We are immensely proud of the culture we have built here at Silverstone Leasing so each new addition to the team is chosen carefully to fit with our ethos and Shane definitely does that.”
Since January, Silverstone Leasing has grown its team by a third, welcoming three new account managers and a customer care apprentice. The expansion allows the team to better serve the customer with the aim of growing profits.
Two further apprentices have also joined in the past 12 months. Every new team member recruited into the business undergoes a two-week induction course before they start looking at the Silverstone Leasing culture and the importance of customer care.
Scott has also invested in digital platforms in 2025 to help with the company growth, including a brand-new website and targeted SEO efforts, which resulted in an article in The Times in August, which saw a huge spike in enquiries through the website.
Scott added: “We continue to invest back into the company through new technology and team development, as our people are our biggest asset. I personally hand-pick our team, sourcing talent from across the industry to create an outstanding workplace providing an exceptional experience.
“Our personal approach has built our reputation and is what sets us apart from our competitors – it’s why so many of our customers come back time and time again. We care about the cars, the service, and the people we work with.”
