Onslow added: “I’m very excited to have joined AFI and am eager to play my role in further developing the company’s sales of new and used machines. Whilst AFI is primarily a rental provider we come into contact with a significant number of customers who wish to purchase a machine for their own long-term use. Through AFI Resale we are able to satisfy this demand – both for used machines and for new ones.”

Onslow was previously with Panther Platforms, having joined them after Lavendon acquired AMP and then merged it into Panther. He joined the industry as an apprentice and has held positions in the service, hire and equipment sales areas of the business at both AMP and more recently Panther.

His father Paul Onslow runs AMP Access Solutions which was demerged from AMP Powered Access in 2005.
