Meet the Team

Chris joined EAMA in 1999, after a 20yr career in the franchised dealer body, reaching the position of Dealer Principal with a Fleet and Retail Management background.

Chris is a loyal Tottenham supporter after being taken to his first game by his Arsenal-loving father and uncle!

Chris is a reluctant gardener, and intends to relax fishing when time allows, after, of course, spending quality time with his three grandchildren.

Best thing about EAMA? I am nearing the end of my 24yr sentence! Seriously though, great company and people. Time flies when you are enjoying yourself.

Chris joined the family business in 1987, having worked both in, and trained, with industrial valuers and auctioneers in London. Chris worked with his father Douglas to further develop his skills, resulting in always looking forward to conducting the next auction.

Chris is married with 3 children, enjoys food with friends, and loves his Springer Spaniel almost as much as his bicycles!

Best thing about EAMA? People on two fronts. Firstly, working with a small team of dedicated people who are far more talented in their roles than I could ever be. Secondly, the continuity of customer relationships. In many cases we have dealt with 4 generations of the same family, together with seeing young people starting as juniors and ending up running successful dealerships, fleet departments, and all types of businesses.

Damian has been with EAMA since 2007; originally driving the vehicles through our saleroom as a part-time job, while studying at University.

After acquiring his degree, Damian stayed on at EAMA, where he now handles everything from design, to marketing, to technical development.

Outside of EAMA, Damian has keen interests in property development, investing, snowboarding, and Formula 1.

Best thing about EAMA? "Flexible working and creative freedom!"

Ella joined EAMA in September 2017, after completing A-Levels in Psychology, Sociology, and Business Studies and working in hospitality.

James joined the team back in 2007, when EAMA moved to its new premises in Wymondham.

His key role is Plant Auction Manager, as well as being one of our auctioneers and vehicle valuers.

Best thing about EAMA? Working in a family-run business and friendly team

Jo has been with EAMA for 6yrs. Prior to that she spent over 10yrs in the marine industry for a large, family-owned business on the Norfolk broads.

In her spare time Jo enjoys competing her horse at showjumping, cross-country, dressage, and long distance rides. She then devotes the rest of her waking hours to being a cat slave to 'Cocobean' and 'Boubies'!

Jo believes that challenges make life interesting, but overcoming those challenges makes life meaningful. Be grateful for something every day.

Best thing about EAMA? "Definitely not the A47 or A11" grrrrrr!"

Nicky's connection with EAMA is, as well as professional, a family one too. Consequently EAMA has always been intertwined with her personal life, as well as her working life. Nicky has worked in the business since 1994, encompassing a number of roles.
