ATS Euromaster has appointed Gary Butterworth to the role of Central Operations Manager, effective immediately.
Gary, who will be field-based, steps up after eight years as Area Operations Manager for the tyre and maintenance provider, where he led up to 28 service centres across southern England.
In his new role for ATS Euromaster, reporting to the Operations Director, Gary will be the central point of contact between the company’s Regional Managers and Head Office functions, where he will be responsible for simplifying operational processes and ensuring effective working practices and relationships.
I consider it a great privilege to be entrusted to support the growth and success of our company. My role will forge robust connections between our hugely talented Head Office support functions and the highly skilled centre network. With a team dedicated to excellence, we will deliver enhanced communication flow, simplify processes and optimise efficiencies. I am wholeheartedly committed to propelling ATS Euromaster to new heights, ensuring that our vehicle maintenance business surpasses all expectations.
Apart from his significant experience to date with ATS Euromaster, Gary brings substantial retail and managerial experience to the role, having previously worked for Sky Retail as a Divisional Manager and for Dixons Carphone Warehouse as a Senior Retail Manager.
We’re really excited to see Gary step up to this role. Gary is an excellent communicator and has a proven track record in facilitating efficiency changes in an often complex operational field. We’re looking forward to the positive contribution he can make to the business in this more senior role.
Gary, 53, who is married, lives in Southampton and lists his hobbies as property renovation, cooking and is a lifelong Liverpool FC supporter.
