Mike Wise has returned to Kwik-Fit this week following a six-month absence exploring other industry roles.

Wise takes over the role of fleet sales boss following a brief flirtation as Manheim sales director, but within a matter of months he mysteriously quit, citing “personal reasons”.

Wise replaces Nigel Davies who had only been in the in the role since January. Davies ends his 14-year career with the fast-fit firm, explaining he had been offered an “opportunity I could not refuse” at a hydraulics firm.
