Within a couple of months of starting I was able to make substantial improvements in the business improving efficiency and productivity that drove both gross and expense management improvements. It's a matter of record that for the fiscal year 2015/2016 the bottom line improved 50% on the back of an already successful business surpassing benchmark ROS & N/P. I was then requested to take on the National Group Projects Manager Role in Head Office. During my tenure I was requested (and accepted) by the MD to represent the Pickering's Group ( at the AUTO TEAM Ultimate Dealer Group Benchmark meetings being voted in by the other members to be included in the top 15 dealers in the country.In July 2016 I was asked to join the Pickering's Head Office team to assist the MD with creation, implementation, adherence, measurement and understanding the degree of success of current and new initiatives inc DMS evaluation and reporting functions as Group Project Manager.

Promoted after 1 year to group General Manager for Huntermotive Group.

After initially being appointed as Dealer Principal managing the Sutherland business (Holden, Mazda, Volkswagen, Nissan, Saab...approx 130 staff) I was promoted after only 8 months to the position of Dealer Principal managing the Blacktown business (Toyota, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Kia, Suzuki...approx 220 staff). Following these two successful appointments I received the ultimate recognition by Robert McGrath (MD and Chairman) who opened up a newly created position for me as group CEO and at that point I managed all dealer business in Sydney including 15 franchises and approx 600 staff. The business was eventually sold to AHG and I was retained as COO for NSW for a further period of 22 months before resigning from AHG.To Whom It May Concern I have worked directly with Mark Roach for a number of years when he was employed by a Motor Dealer Group that was a client of our company.Mark was originally employed as a Dealer Principal in a poorly performing dealership. Mark turned that dealership into a highly profitable one within 12 months. Mark was then transferred to another dealership and achieved a similar result.Mark’s successes led him to be promoted to COO for the Group, which was selling approx 1200 cars per month, and I had a closer working relationship with him in that position.The working relationship I established with Mark was most satisfying. He was extremely efficient and transparent in every circumstance. He is also one of the most diligent, determined and honourable people I have worked with in this industry.I have no hesitation in recommending Mark based on my experience. His success in achieving results is a matter of record, and in my view his personal integrity is beyond question.Yours sincerely,David BradshawManaging DirectorAutomotive Global Pty Limited
