Andy Walters Leaves James Thomas EngineeringJames Thomas Engineering (JTE) has announced the imminent departure of its sales manager, Andy Walters, after a career spanning 21 years with the company. Walters, son of the company's co-founder John Walters, has chosen to take up a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join specialist UK model makers, Amalgam. Walters' passion for cars is legendary having collected model cars for his entire life and been instrumental in establishing James Thomas Engineering as a sponsor of Jack Goff, the industry's adopted racing driver and BTCC champion. "Amalgam is a very well-respected, highly-specialised UK manufacturer of scale model cars for top-end clients," says Walters. "Hard though it will be to leave JTE, I am very excited by the prospect of new horizons that this move gives." "Andy is an irreplaceable member of the JTE team, both in terms of his character and the unparalleled experience he brings to the company," says operations director, Paul Young. "As such, it will be difficult to fill his role, especially at such short notice. However, we all agree this was too good an opportunity for him to miss and he leaves with the blessing and good wishes of the team." Walters' duties will be shared among the James Thomas Engineering team in the short term. Enquiries should be directed to Paul Young while JTE search for a new sales director to head up its expanding team.
