Hills have announced the appointment of Jason Bishop, UK regional Manager and Chris Barnes, Warehouse Operations Manager, as new additions to their Senior management team.
Jason and Chris are both highly regarded and well recognised individuals from within their respective industries.
Jason brings with him 20 years of knowledge and experience of the salvage and recycling industry, having previously worked within FAB Recycling and Synetiq. His role of regional manager is key to increasing the efficient delivery of Green Parts across the UK, having recently announced the development of new sites in the South of England.
“Hills have long been recognised as an early adopter and leader of Green Parts supply to the insurance industry” says Jason. “This is an exciting period of growth at Hills for which I am excited and proud to be a part of. Overseeing our regional distribution facilities presents an opportunity to deliver a market leading service to our clients and cement our position as the leader in Green Parts supply”
Chris is a welcomed addition to the Hills senior team bringing with him valuable experience gained from operations and leadership roles, having previously worked at Yodel and Quickco where he managed multiple largescale warehousing and distribution channels, the latter being directly within the automotive parts sector.
“I am delighted to join an organisation with the energy and passion that resides within the team here at Hills” explains Chris. “The vision for the business is clear and I am looking forward to building upon the foundations already in place to deliver a standard of service which clearly distinguishes Hills from the rest of the market”
Ian added “Our state-of-the-art parts warehousing and distribution facility is the largest in the UK and it is critical that we have the knowledge and experience to move at pace. Chris has the skillset to increase our lines of multichannel distribution and growth. Working alongside Jason presents a winning formula for the business and highlights our intentions to invest in the best minds in the industry to ensure we provide our customers with a market leading service”
