Miles Sixsmith MSc

Head of Business Development

I'm passionate about great customer experience and anything to do with aviation.


I joined Hobbs Parker Car Auctions at the start of  2024.

After a career overseas in Hospitality and Resort Management, I joined the motor industry in 2003. I worked first in local dealerships in Kent as a Process Improvement Manager and then spent several years with Volkswagen UK as an Area Aftersales Development Manager.

After gaining an MSc in Strategic Automotive Management via the Henry Ford College at Loughborough University, I returned to automotive retail, heading up Volkswagen retailers in Tunbridge Wells and then Sevenoaks. After seven years with Volkswagen, I joined Audi as Head of Business, firstly in Canterbury and then in Tunbridge Wells.

After a short break to spend some quality time with family, I’m delighted to have joined the established and well-respected Hobbs Parker Car Auctions team.

I’m passionate about great customer experience and enjoy working in teams of like-minded people.

I live in Kent with my wife, daughter, six guinea pigs, four dogs, four hens, two rabbits, a cat and countless fish!

When not at work (or feeding my pets), I can usually be found looking skyward, as I have a passion for all things aviation-related. Failing that, a day out beside the sea sees me at my happiest – something to do with my childhood in Liverpool, no doubt.
