The new position will cover all commercial and leisure vehicle valuations &#8211; the latter including motorcycles, caravans and motorhomes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Jayson joined Glass&#8217;s in March 2014 and has a 20-year track record in the motor industry including key roles at Manheim, Carshop, Robins and Day, and ARVAL PHH.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He said: &#8220;I&#8217;m thrilled to be taking over this role. Glass&#8217;s is the market leader for valuations in commercial and leisure vehicles, I am looking forward to maintaining and building on the reputation that we have for fairness and accuracy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The creation of Whittington&#8217;s role coincides with the departure of the chief editor of commercial vehicles, George Alexander, and chief editor of leisure vehicles, Randal Thomas. They have been at Glass&#8217;s for 28 years and 17 years respectively.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rupert Pontin, head of valuations at Glass&#8217;s, said: &#8220;George and Randal have been Glass&#8217;s stalwarts for many years, providing a highly professional and very accurate valuations service for our customers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe company owes them a huge debt of gratitude. \u201cJayson has big shoes to fill but he has an excellent track record in the industry and we are sure he will be a success.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He added that the two older positions had been combined as part of enhancements in the way that Glass&#8217;s handled and processed its data, making the split role unnecessary.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Pontin explained: &#8220;We have been making changes to our management structure and data processes for some time and are now in a position where we believe that our team and our valuations are market-leading. This is an exciting time for Glass&#8217;s.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jayson Whittington has been appointed to the newly created role <a class=\"moretag btn btn-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/jayson-whittington-appointed-commercial-vehicle-leisure-valuations-manager-glasss\/\">Read More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":2331,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[279,59,280],"class_list":["post-2330","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-industry-news","tag-commercial-vehicle","tag-glasss","tag-jayson-whittington"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2330","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2330"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2330\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2330"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2330"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dev.lnetdev.uk\/thevra2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2330"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
