Bobby started his career with Arnold Clark as a Valeter at the Paisley branch some 15 years ago. After four years - and much pestering of the General Manager - his transfer into sales was approved. In July 1994, Bobby arrived at work, donning a sharp suit instead of his usual overalls.
He comments:"I'll never forget my first day as sales trainee - it felt quite strange going to the same place but doing a different job. I was really excited and can even remember my first sale of a Peugeot 307 to a local man called Mr. Green." After a couple of years of selling many cars to many a happy customer, Bobby was promoted to a senior sales post within Arnold Clark, based at Pollokshaws Road.
Promotion to General Manager at Peat Road soon followed another two years later. When the opportunity to return to the Paisley branch as General Manager presented itself, Bobby jumped at the chance. He says, "In a strange way it kind of felt like going home. When I was offered the transfer I remember thinking: Valeter to General Manager in 15 easy years!
Arnold Clark is a great place to work. I've come full circle and look forward to many more happy years here."
