FixMyCar has made two appointments to its senior leadership team.
Marc Russell, who has worked at the company for over three years, has been promoted to chief commercial officer from his previous role as head of customer care and regional UK sales.
Russell, who has over 25 years of experience working in sales roles within the automotive industry – as well as an extensive track record of working with dealer networks and the parts aftermarket – has played a significant role in the growth and retention of FixMyCar’s biggest partnerships, including the likes of Bosch and The RAC.
His responsibilities will expand into bringing new fleet and warranty products to market and commercially developing FixMyCar’s network of independent garages.
Matt Wrankmore will now fill the role of head of garage network at the business, following promotion from senior operations manager.
He has worked in the automotive industry for 20 years, with prior experience at Halfords, and has worked on supporting and managing the garage network in his two years at FixMyCar.
“I am thrilled we have been able to fill two important roles at FixMyCar with internal talent,” said Amanda Webb, interim CEO at FixMyCar.
“The promotions of Matt and Marc speak highly of the aptitude and ability we have within our team and demonstrate that hard work and commitment are rewarded.
“Matt and Marc will continue their successful work for us, for our partners and for our garage network, driven by their expertise and knowledge of both the company and the wider aftermarket, which is of huge value to us.
“It’s a very exciting time for the business and with our planned projections for growth, building a solid and reliable leadership team has been a top priority. Our leadership team is already making great progress on our strategy for the short- and long-term future of FixMyCar.”
