A parts manager at a Macclesfield car retailer is celebrating after passing a new management training course with some of the highest marks in the country.
Martin Pointon, who works for Gilbert Lawton Volkswagen, recently completed the parts managers aftersales qualification programme, launched by Volkswagen’s Training Academy.
The 29-year-old is the first and only parts manager to successfully complete all elements of the course.
Thrilled Martin, who lives in Macclesfield, said: “I am absolutely overjoyed and relieved to have passed the course and really proud to have done so well.
“The course taught me so much that will help me in my role as head of the parts department and for my future development.”
To pass the course Martin had to complete practical and theoretical assessments, take part in an interview and conduct a presentation on a project he was responsible for running over a 12-week period.
Having worked at the retailer on Winterton Way for almost seven years, Martin is now planning to start working towards an aftersales manager position.
Gilbert Lawton’s brand manager, Nick Ashton, said: “We believe that having knowledgeable staff is paramount to the success of a business.
“We are all very proud of Martin and I think the fact that he gained some of the highest marks in the country shows that we have the best parts manager out there.”
