ILC ARTICLE

Hills Group has appointed Jason Bishop, UK regional manager and Chris Barnes, warehouse operations manager, as new additions to its senior management team.

Jason brings with him 20 years of knowledge and experience of the salvage and recycling industry, having previously worked within FAB Recycling and Synetiq. His role of regional manager is key to increasing the efficient delivery of Green Parts across the UK, having recently announced the development of new sites in the South of England.

Chris is a welcomed addition to the Hills senior team bringing with him valuable experience gained from operations and leadership roles, having previously worked at Yodel and Quickco where he managed multiple largescale warehousing and distribution channels, the latter being directly within the automotive parts sector.

Ian Hill, managing director of Hills Group said, “Our state-of-the-art parts warehousing and distribution facility is the largest in the UK and it is critical that we have the knowledge and experience to move at pace. Chris has the skillset to increase our lines of multichannel distribution and growth. Working alongside Jason presents a winning formula for the business and highlights our intentions to invest in the best minds in the industry to ensure we provide our customers with a market leading service.”
