Martyn Rowley moves from Audatex to GT Motive

Used by over 80 insurance and leasing companies worldwide, GT Motive offers an alternative to Audatex's estimating solution. GT Global, created by GT Motive provides work providers and repairers estimate costs for vehicle repairs following vehicle damage. With a pay-as-you-use transactional cost model, and a cloud-based system that gives direct access to OE parts prices.

GT Motive produces over five million estimates a year, and as business begins to grow within the UK market, the company approached Martyn to join their thriving team.

Martyn Rowley said "I decided to take the leap and join GT Motive after testing the cloud-based software. It really is one of a kind, providing all the data the repair industry could need, at the click of a button. From laptop to tablet, the software can be easily accessed when away from a desk. Bringing with me a wealth of knowledge and network within the automotive sector, I am excited to create strong relationships with customers through GT Motive."

Following a year of unprecedented challenge that brought much change to the whole motor industry, Martyn continues... "I join the business at a pivotal time, when more cars are back on the road and business begins to pick up, I'll be providing key support to help our customers business' thrive again, post-Covid."

GT Motive have been fighting for more choice, competition, and innovation within the estimating technology arena, that has been dominated by Audatex for many years. Following years of global growth and success, GT Motive believe it is time the UK market of repairers are supported by choice and innovative technology.

David Vella, GT Motive's executive director in UK & Ireland said, "The goal of GT Motive is to bring competition and choice to the UK claims sector with innovation technology that is built around collaborative solutions that deliver accuracy, transparency of pricing, speed and efficiency for the users."

Martyn Rowley made the move from Audatex to GT Motive in August 2021, David continues... "I have personally known Martyn for around 15 years and have admired his tenacity and work ethic as well as the engagement and passion he has for the industry, so when considering someone for the business to drive the UK Business Development forward, there really wasn't anyone else I would have wanted in the role, Martyn will bring a wealth of experience and context of the UK repairer market to GT Motive".
