Bristol Street Motors Silverlink Hyundai has welcomed a new general manager with decades of motor retail experience.

Neil Bianchi, 45, has worked for the Group for eight years, moving to the Silverlink dealership from the Group’s operation in Darlington.

Neil has worked in the motor retail industry for almost 30 years, since starting out as junior sales executive when he was 16. He has always had a passion for cars and knew the motor industry was the perfect career path for him.

Neil said: “I’m really excited about my new role at Bristol Street Motors Silverlink Hyundai. The dealership is one of our newer businesses, it has amazing facilities and I am looking forward to taking on this new challenge with a fantastic brand.

“Since I joined the group in 2013, there has been a very clear progression strategy for me, which was a clear advantage when joining Bristol Street Motors. I knew if I invested my skills, effort and time with the group they would invest, support, coach and mentor me which is a great feeling.”

Robert Forrester, chief executive of Bristol Street Motors, said: “I am delighted to welcome Neil as the new general manager at our Bristol Street Motors Silverlink Hyundai site. Neil has been a committed member of the Bristol Street Motors team for a number of years now, and I’m pleased to see his career go from strength to strength.
