Former Alphabet boss Mark Sinclair has joined contract hire and salary sacrifice firm Tusker as its chief operating officer.

Sinclair will report to chief executive David Hosking and joins after 12 years with the BMW-owned leasing company.

His previous roles included director of Alphabet GB from October 2007 to early 2011 and director of internal operations at Alphabet international, a position he has held for the past 15 months.

Sinclair said: “I’m a strong believer in salary sacrifice as a product that is opening up and growing in the UK. [We’re] very well positioned in the market to leverage that and to capitalise on the growth opportunities available.

“Based on the current order take, the expectation at Tusker is that we will triple the size of the portfolio over the next three years.”
