A Wolverhampton retailer is celebrating after one of its employees was recognised for his outstanding contribution and dedication to the Volkswagen Brand.
Wolverhampton Volkswagen service manager Dean Beddows was presented with a Volkswagen Gold Pin for his excellent level of customer service at a glittering award ceremony held at the Natural History Museum in London last month.
Andrew Hockedy, brand manager at Wolverhampton Volkswagen, part of the Trust Group which has sites in Stourbridge and Redditch, said: “The prestigious Volkswagen Gold Pin is the highest international accolade given by the brand. Only about 20 individuals each year receive the awards which recognise exceptional levels of service and loyalty.
“I would like to congratulate Dean, who has consistently displayed commitment and passion in his work. He started with us as an apprentice and is now the best Service Manager in the network!”
Speaking after receiving his award, Dean said: “I am thrilled to have been awarded a Gold Pin, it’s a huge honour to be recognised by Volkswagen UK.
“I thoroughly enjoy my job and couldn’t have achieved this without the support of my colleagues.”
Service manager Dean, 34, from Wolverhampton, has worked at Wolverhampton Volkswagen for 18 years. He joined the company in 1995 as an Apprentice, and has successfully worked his way up to Service Manager.
