Ring appoints new area sales manager for Ireland

Colin McCourt has recently joined Ring Automotive and will be primarily managing accounts on the island of Ireland, looking after both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, seeking out new opportunities for business development and growth and arranging workouts with customers.

McCourt has more than 20 years of experience in the aftermarket, including previous roles with Forte Lubricants, Magowan Tyres, Würth Ireland and Charles Hurst.

McCourt commented on the perception he had of Ring before joining the company: “I had seen the Ring product in loads of motor factors, and when I asked about it, I always got a positive response.

“Also, Ring has invested heavily in workout vans, kitted out with its best selling products, available to our customers for trade shows and workouts.

“When I saw those vans, I knew I wanted to be a part of the company, as these tools make my job a lot easier. I also like the idea of being part of a worldwide company like Osram.”
