Vertu Events

Our first Managers Foundation course of 2026, complete with a copy of "It's Not Rocket Science" by the esteemed @DaveAndersonTip. A new group of managers receiving a welcome from @vertumotorsCEO and other key directors in the group.

It was a joy to celebrate the winners of our Group Management Awards this weekend in Edinburgh, and as coincidence go - this was a great one... On Saturday evening, after we all hurried into taxis to escape the evening's rain, the group in mine engaged in usual conversation with the driver about our visit to the city – long story short – our @thetaxicentre business was brought up, and unbelievably, the one taxi that we were sat in happened to be the only one in Edinburgh with a bespoke Taxi Centre livery, which you can see below. The driver happened to be a customer of ours named Terry Dickson - Terry bought a vehicle from us at a roadshow back in September 2023. Our excellent Taxi Centre Field Sales Manager, Jordan Walker, agreed a deal with Terry for Servicing in exchange for the Taxi Centre livery, and it looks fantastic. As Scotland’s leading retailer of London Electric Vehicle Company (LEVC) vehicles, we hope to see more #TheTaxiCentre taxis like this one on the roads of Edinburgh, and beyond. It was great to meet you, Terry! @VertuMotors #VertuMotorsplc #TheTaxiCentre #LEVC #Edinburgh

Our very deserving 2025/26 Management Award winners being presented with their trophies and exclusive pin badges by @vertumotorsCEO, in a Group our size this is huge achievement.

We've had a brilliant weekend at the five star Caledonian Edinburgh hosting Management Award winners and their partners, there was a formal awards ceremony as well as time to relax, use the spa and explore the city.

The Group is proud to finally be able to share that Jessica Gregorio, one of our Senior Creative Designers based at our Gateshead Marketing Studio, has had her design selected for a new commemorative 50p coin celebrating 50 years of @KingsTrust – a truly remarkable achievement. Jess’s winning design was unveiled by @RoyalMintUK and she had the honour of meeting His Majesty King Charles III to present to him with his coin in person. Congratulations, Jess! We are proud to have such great talent within the Group. Full story >> vertumotors.com/news/north-eas… #TheKingsTrust #Vertu #Design
