Select Car Leasing’s Preston office has raised a glass to its newly-promoted Senior Consultant Rob Farrell.

Rob, 41, joined Select in September 2020 having already spent a decade working in the vehicle leasing industry.
And after processing more than 500 orders since arriving at Select, averaging 21 orders each month, Rob has been made Senior Consultant - the first such position-holder in the Preston office’s history.
Rob, a father-of-one from Ramsbottom, Greater Manchester, says the ‘secret’ to his car lease success is in showing clients all of their options when it comes to vehicle choice.
He reveals:
“If you can get a customer precisely what they want, at the first time of asking, that’s obviously brilliant. But as a leasing consultant it’s also crucial you’re able to talk them through all of their options and alternatives. Whether it’s a personal or business lease, most clients simply want to pay as little as possible for the best thing they can get.
“They might initially enquire about a Mercedes-Benz A Class, for example, but end up driving away in an Audi A3 or BMW 1 Series. If we can put a customer behind the wheel of a car with the best possible spec level for their money, we know they’ll be happy.
“It’s our job to make sure we can highlight everything that’s available.”
Rob often brings a special friend to the Preston office - his beloved dog, Pebbles, one of the two cockapoos that are part of his family.
He’s also a keen campervan enthusiast, and will be taking his converted Vauxhall Vivaro up to the Highlands of Scotland in the coming days to complete the famous North Coast 500 road trip.
Steven Clarke, Principal of Select Car Leasing Preston, praised Rob for all of his hard work.
He says:
“Rob’s promotion is something of a milestone for us, being the first ‘Senior Consultant’ at our Preston office.
“And the entire team here is delighted for Rob. He has a great attitude, he’s committed to his work, and he’s also a real pleasure to work with.”
Select Car Leasing’s Preston office opened early in 2020, when ‘Cameron Clarke Leasing’ joined the Select family as an Appointed Representative.
It’s led by Principals Steven Clarke and Tony Cameron.
This summer we revealed how the Preston team had showcased their specialist knowledge on electric fleet lease vehicles, as they supplied a local architectural practice with a fleet of zero-emissions BMW iX vehicles.
