  • I’m proud to be a co-owner and strategic partner in a business that’s shaking up the vehicle tracking industry.
  • We provide professional-grade, plug-and-play vehicle trackers for tradespeople, fleets, and business owners who are tired of poor service and clunky software. Our mission is simple: make managing vehicles easy, reliable, and stress-free - without the hidden costs or frustrating support that’s become too common in this industry.
  • My involvement focuses on business strategy, sales, and building partnerships. I help shape the growth plan, lead commercial efforts, and ensure we’re delivering a standout service that puts transparency and control back in the hands of business owners.
  • Why Parallel Asset Management?
  • Simple, powerful software that works the way you want it to.

  • Real human service. When you need support, we actually answer.
  • We’re early, but we’re growing fast - backed by a proven team with experience scaling service-led businesses.

  • At Parallel Partnerships, we help ambitious B2B businesses scale faster through premium outsourced appointment setting and SDR support.
  • We work as an extension of your team - helping you generate more qualified sales opportunities, increase sat meetings, and build a stronger pipeline without the time, cost and operational headache of growing an internal sales function too quickly.
  • What makes us different is the way we combine people, process and transparency.
  • Alongside our Leeds-based team, clients get access to strong data, better tools and a full live dashboard where they can view bookings, run reports and listen back to calls. That means more visibility, more accountability and far more transparency than most outsourced providers offer.
  • We are built for businesses that already understand the sales process, value quality, and have the budget to invest properly in growth.
  • In just 3 years, we have grown to just under 70 staff, scaled the business organically, and won Telemarketing Company of the Year - all while staying focused on delivering a service that feels commercially sharp, transparent and genuinely useful to our clients.
  • If your business wants to scale faster, generate more qualified meetings, and work with an outsourced team that feels like a genuine extension of your own, let’s talk.
  • Message me on LinkedIn or book a call to see how we can help
