Dave Williams is the new managing director of Choose Leisure, in Canterbury, Kent.

He counts stints at several motorhome manufacturers, most recently, Auto-Sleepers, where he was sales and marketing director. He has also previously worked at Swift and Bailey as part of a long career in the motorhome industry. His move comes exactly 10 years after Choose Leisure was given the Auto-Sleepers franchise.

Dave’s arrival at Choose Leisure has allowed founders, Paul and Jenny Santos, to step back from the day-to-day running of the business. Paul moves to the role of chairman, while Dominic Price, previously general manager, has been made sales director.

Commenting on his appointment, Dave Williams said: “When we appointed Choose Leisure (with the Auto-Sleepers franchise) 10 years ago, little did I know that what lay ahead would lead to me joining them as MD after 11 great years with Auto-Sleepers! I’m over the moon to be leading their incredible team.”
