MAHLE strengthens sales team
with new appointment
MAHLE Aftermarket appoints new Regional Sales Manager and brings
wealth of industry experience to the role. He will be integral to
supporting customers across central UK
MAHLE Aftermarket UK has appointed Ian
Dore as its new Regional Sales Manager
to bolster its expertise in the team and
continue to deliver excellent customer
service.
Ian will be responsible for key account
management, as well as looking after all
customers in central UK.
He joins MAHLE Aftermarket with a strong
background in sales, having previously held
roles at Valeo and a UK manufacturer of hot
tubs selling into the commercial market.
Commenting on his new position, Ian
said: “I’m delighted to be joining MAHLE,
the company is a great fit for me as I am a
technical salesperson, but also driven by
data – and my new position combines the
two.
“I am a big advocate of the internal
combustion engine (ICE), so it‘s great to be
part of the automotive aftermarket. But I
am also interested in looking to the future
in terms of technology and I have peace of
mind that MAHLE understands the market
and is helping to futureproof the business
(thus my career) with its latest innovations.
“I’m looking forward to adding value
to the business and building positive
relationships with MAHLE customers.”
Jason Smith, UK and Ireland sales and
marketing manager at MAHLE Aftermarket
adds: “With the new appointment of Ian
to our sales team, we’re building on our
knowledge, relationships and customer
service levels to fully support the business
further.
“Ian has fantastic sales experience to
make him an asset to the MAHLE team
and the wider business. Along with his
previous experience at Valeo bolstering
his skill set, he is perfectly positioned to
offer exceptional service to our customers
across the UK and we’d like to wish him
every success.”
