Carzam names new CEO

Kirk O’Callaghan has joined Carzam as chief executive officer.

He takes up his role following six months’ gardening leave after leaving Carshop.

His appointment brings another high profile head into the rapidly expanding business, which is on target to deliver more than 20,000 cars in 2021.

O’Callaghan said: “I’m extremely looking forward to working with a team of leading industry players who have a wealth of retail, wholesale and digital automotive experience. We’ve had some great talent from within the sector join the business and we plan to continue to build and attract the very best from within our industry going forward.

“We have some very exciting plans for the future, the business model is very scalable and the team is very experienced, focused and energised to deliver on these plans.

“At Carzam we’re set up to be very agile when it comes to meeting changing consumer and supply partner needs and we plan to lead the acceleration of this change within the used car wholesale and retail sectors. Our people, customers and technology will be at the heart of everything we will do.”
