Cooper Solutions is heading into 2014 as it started 2013 - by expanding our team.
We’ve strengthened our team considerably over the last 12 months and created five new positions across the business.
The latest recruit is Richard Pickering who has boosted our software testing team.
The 29-year-old, who lives in Coventry, has worked in software development for 10 years, during which time he has enjoyed spells with firms in the insurance and gaming sectors.
Pickering is providing key support across Cooper Solutions’ full range of web-based automotive dealer management systems used by more than 1,400 car dealerships across the UK.
The systems, which include functions to support fleet management control, financial control, daily insurance, used car stock control and an electronic trade auction site, enable dealerships to be more efficient, saving them time and money in the process.
Pickering said: “The support systems Cooper Solutions have got in place to make dealerships’ day-to-day processes as easy as possible really impressed me. To be honest I wasn’t aware how in-depth each of the products actually are and it has been really interesting learning about all the support systems and the functionality behind them. It’s great to be part of a tight-knit team at a really progressive company and I’m looking forward to playing a major part helping to develop and further enhance our offering to the market.”
Barry Cooper, Managing Director of Cooper Solutions, said the company has grown its headcount every year since launching in 2001.
“We’ve grown the company substantially since our launch and the team is now 30-strong – the biggest it’s ever been,” he said.
“Richard brings considerable experience to the software testing team and we’re pleased to have him on board. The last 12 months have been good for the company and we’re excited by the prospects for further growth in 2014. We’re constantly enhancing our products and are working on some exciting new projects which we look forward to rolling out to our clients very soon.”
