ADESA Creates New Dealer-Focused Role

ADESA has created a new role to direct and activate the team that develops relationships with its large-scale buyers and sellers.

The title is VP of major dealer accounts, and Scott Drehs will helm that new title.

Drehs is a 30-year automotive industry veteran who joined the KAR family as VP of credit services at AFC in November 2004. He first began working in the automotive finance industry in 1989.

In his new position, his team will work with dealers to implement ADESA's offerings into their workflows.

 “Scott is not only a familiar face, he is a proven leader in the remarketing ecosystem with established industry relationships,” said Paul Lips, chief commercial officer at ADESA. “As ADESA continues to focus on creating a more seamless customer experience, Scott will lead a team of account managers charged with better meeting the needs of our major dealer groups and increasing our market share in this segment of our industry.”
