Moore the merrier for ACIS
ACIS has appointed John Moore as a business development director as part of its national business expansion strategy.
John, who began his automotive refinishing career as a panel beater more than 40 years ago, complements the role of fellow director Damon Curtis in generating additional sales and the promotion of added value services for ACIS, which continues to outgrow the market in terms of helping bodyshops become more efficient and cost-effective.
John joins ACIS from Silco Automotive, where he was national sales director and was responsible for establishing the brand in the UK almost three years ago.
Prior to Silco, John worked as trade sales manager with IAL and, before that, sales director with Milton Keynes Paint and Equipment.
He said, ‘I am very excited about joining ACIS after Silco as I felt that after I had successfully launched the brand in the UK, I was ready for a new challenge. I have a lot of experience in the automotive industry, almost all of it in the refinish market – from panel beating to paint sales and distribution – so a national role with such a leading organisation is a fantastic opportunity to put my knowledge to good use.’
Graham O’Neill, CEO of ACIS, said, ‘This appointment is the diametric opposite of Moore is less! John’s experience of this market is extensive and he will be a great asset to the team. He has a strong work ethic and, like all of us at ACIS, an appetite to learn and adapt our offering as the accident repair industry continues to evolve.’
