Vindis Group names new head
Vindis Group has strengthened its senior management team with the appointment of Jack Lankester-Bell as the new head of trade parts specialists (TPS) and Ducati.
Vindis Group is a family-owned motor dealer group across East Anglia with a network of brands including Audi, Bentley, Škoda, Seat, Volkswagen and Volkswagen Commercial Vehicle.
The promotion is the result of significant growth for TPS, including a brand-new TPS national call centre in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire and an opportunity opening up at Ducati. His new role will see him taking on responsibility for the management, profitability, compliance and smooth running of both Vindis Ducati stores based in Cambridge and Peterborough, the national call centre and both Vindis TPS centres in Cambridge and Bishop’s Stortford.
He said, ‘I’m delighted to be promoted to the new Head of TPS and Ducati. It’s a really exciting opportunity for me personally as I get to delve into the motorbike sector, as well as continuing to pioneer our TPS offering. I look forward to continuing working and learning from the passionate individuals at Vindis Group, driving my team forwards to deliver the best and most efficient service for our customers and accelerating growth in 2019 and beyond.’
Jamie Vindis, managing director for Vindis Group, added, ‘Jack has considerable passion and experience in working with our dealerships, so this role felt like the natural next step – especially with his love for motorcycles. I am confident his enviable knowledge will ensure we continue to deliver fantastic customer service across our brands, so I hope you will all join me in congratulating Jack on his worthy promotion.’
