Zenith, the UK’s leading independent leasing, fleet management and vehicle outsourcing business, has renewed its longstanding contract with multinational energy company SSE, following a competitive 18-month-long tender process.
The renewed contract will see Zenith offer full vehicle leasing and fleet management provisions to SSE’s salary sacrifice and company car fleet, which currently consists of more than 3,500 vehicles. Zenith has also retained its existing rental management agreement and will continue to manage all associated in-life vehicle services.
Zenith was awarded the renewed contract due to its strong in-house team, which ensures the smooth management of SSE’s company car and salary sacrifice schemes. The company is also supporting SSE in its energy transition and will continue to focus on driving EVs into the electricity company’s current fleet.
The contract continues an eight-year partnership between Zenith and SSE.
Simon Gray, Head of Fleet Services at SSE, said:
“We are pleased to continue our longstanding relationship with Zenith following a competitive tender process. Over the past eight years, Zenith has developed a strong understanding of our fleet requirements and has provided valued support across our company car, salary sacrifice and rental management arrangements.
“As we continue to evolve our fleet and support SSE’s wider net zero ambitions, maintaining a collaborative and service-focused partnership will be important in delivering a positive experience for our drivers and achieving our future objectives. We look forward to working with Zenith and building on the progress already made.”
“We’re excited to work with SSE for another five years. It reflects SSE’s continued trust in our team and services, highlighting how our expertise, service, and tailored solutions continue to set us apart in the market, as well as demonstrating the benefits available to a fleet when combining company fleet with a car salary sacrifice benefit.
“Being able to offer SSE both company car and salary sacrifice solutions ultimately provides SSE and its employees with a better user experience. It streamlines the approach to having a leased car, providing drivers with the flexibility to make an informed decision that is right for them and SSE. We look forward to building on our longstanding partnership and helping SSE further enhance their company car and salary sacrifice fleet.”
