Shaftec appoints new UK and Ireland Sales Manager

Birmingham-based remanufacturer Shaftec Automotive announces that it has appointed Joe Toakley as UK and Ireland Sales Manager.

Joe has dedicated his entire career to the automotive aftermarket and has been with Shaftec for nine years. He began as an Area Sales Manager, responsible for the south west region, where he quickly demonstrated his expertise in account management. This led to his promotion to Key Account Manager, overseeing relationships with Shaftec’s major buying group customers. Now, Joe is stepping into a new role, managing sales across the entire UK and Ireland.

Shaftec Sales Director Marc Wise said: “Joe’s commitment and hard work over the past nine years have helped promote and grow the Shaftec brand throughout the UK market. Joe and I have worked closely together for the past six months on new projects that will help shape the future of the Shaftec brand. His precise knowledge, skill and passion will further help develop our business into the future.”

Joe commented after his appointment: “At Shaftec, we continue to drive our business model and ethos forward to maintain the market-leading quality, range, and service that we are unequivocally renowned for. We are in a constantly evolving market which brings with it new challenges, but with a strong UK sales team and a clear vision for future growth of the business, I am excited for the journey ahead in this new role.”
