Alan joined the group back on 2nd June 1980 as a valeter at the Hampshire branch and has since worked his way up through the Service Centre to Foreman and subsequently became Marquis Group Aftersales Manager in 2003.
Alan is now the main point of contact for all Aftersales enquiries and deals with any issues that cannot be dealt with by our nine branches.
Marquis have a succession policy whereby we encourage growth from within the business and there are clear lines of promotion for staff within the group. This goes hand in hand with our overall recruitment policy that encompasses employing skilled staff from outside the company, to drive our business forward. Alan's long service is proof that Marquis is a fantastic Group to work for and staff retention is high on our priority list for consistency in customer service and our reputation.
Alan will be enjoying the celebrations today by taking lunch with our MD Mike Crouch and a presentation took place this morning with gifts & cakes to mark the momentous occasion. Congratulations Alan & thank you for your hard work!
