AutoPayPlus has gained another veteran executive to support its growing partner network with the addition of Averi Tucker as agency development manager on its sales team.

A child of the industry, Tucker grew up in her father’s dealership, giving her a deep-rooted passion and understanding of the automotive world. Taking on many roles and growing to manage the business for over 10 years, she gained extensive experience in finance and insurance, sales, and business development, honing her skillset as an industry leader.

She previously held multiple roles at Carfax, including as regional account manager, combining her passion for automotive with relationship-building. She spearheaded sales growth across the Midwest, managing over 250 accounts, including for OEMs, single-point stores, and dealerships. Her understanding of the market and products allowed her to develop customized solutions, and her time at the industry titan also includes experience as a product specialist.

In the new role, Tucker will spearhead development of partnerships with external agents and partners, supporting their success and facilitating the integration process. She will take on the training and education of AutoPayPlus partners, helping them leverage the company’s services.

“Averi Tucker comes to AutoPayPlus at the perfect time as we continue our explosive growth, her skill and expertise in building relationships in our industry will contribute to take us to the next level” said AutoPayPlus CEO Robert M. Steenbergh. “I’m confident that the addition of Averi to our team will further drive major success for our business.”

“I’m thrilled to join AutoPayPlus because it allows me to combine my passion for the industry with my commitment to helping others,” Tucker said. “I look forward to leveraging my expertise building relationships in developing and expanding our network of partners and driving success as a team.”
