A manager at Macklin Motors has been honoured at a national awards ceremony. Gary Streeter was named ‘Sales Manager of the Year’ at Vertu Motors’ CEO Awards dinner, hosted by the Group’s CEO Robert Forrester at Oulton Hall in Leeds. Gary picked up the accolade after working hard to improve used car performance. In preparation for a potential position as general manager, Gary graduated from the Vertu general manager development programme in November 2018, designed to familiarise participants with all aspects of the business, through operational and Dale Carnegie leadership training modules.

Robert Forrester said: “Gary has developed his department and improved the used car performance at an impressive pace. “He has installed strong disciplines that ensure customers get the right car, at the right price and have a fantastic experience. Gary does the basics brilliantly. All in all, this is a terrific performance and Gary is a very worthy winner. Well done Gary!”
