An automotive software company has helped its latest recruit make a successful return journey home.
Cooper Solutions, based in Barford, has hired Lynne Stewart who lives in Willenhall, in Coventry, but originally hails from the Barford area.
The 29-year-old has been appointed as the firm’s FullAuction support executive to monitor activity on its online trade vehicle auction site FullAuction, which operates over 100 live used car auctions at any given time.
The firm, which designs web-based solutions for over 1,000 UK franchised car dealers, has employed Lynne to provide administration support and to respond to customer enquires relating to FullAuction.
Lynne, who has previous industry experience at Aston Martin’s headquarters, in Gaydon, and Damon Hill BMW, in Warwick, will also be responsible for helping to broker deals between bidders and sellers.
She said: “I joined Cooper Solutions because I had the chance to be part of a relatively new department which continues to grow.
“I am originally from the area, although I have lived in Coventry for a few years now, so this is a kind of homecoming for me.
“I have previous experience in the motor trade, but this challenge offered a different perspective of the industry and that really appealed to me.”
Full Auction is just one of Cooper Solutions’ suite of web-based products for automotive dealerships which includes well-known brands FullCover, FullForecast and FullControl for courtesy car insurance, financial management and used car stock control respectively.
Barry Cooper, managing director of Cooper Solutions, said: “We are delighted to have Lynne on board to welcome her back to her hometown.
“Lynne’s appointment comes at an important time as we continue to develop FullAuction.
“The product is attracting an ever-increasing number of buyers, while continuing to produce strong sale prices and significantly reduced costs for both buyers and sellers.”
