National Powersport Auctions (NPA) developed two new positions to better serve its RV and marine clients.
In Florida, NPA welcomed Shannon Bennett as the company’s RV and Marine sales and admin coordinator. In Georgia, Tom Wilkinson, an employee since 2005, is now the production supervisor for RV and Marine and Specialty Product divisions.
Bennett is an outdoor enthusiast who brings diverse skills and experience within relatable industries such as the automotive and trailer businesses. She has no fear of adventure, from jet skiing to sky diving, NPA said. Her fondest outdoor memories are of a 28-foot Bayliner named “Nauti Girl” she captained in Lake Erie.
“Life is crazy, but having fun in life is what makes it all worthwhile,” she said. “The people I have met within the powersports industry know what that’s about.”
Bennett has over a decade of experience working in financial institutions and banks.
“My sales and logistics background has equipped me with the ability to coordinate complex operations seamlessly. With my dedication to exceptional customer service, I am well-prepared to significantly impact the powersports field.”
In this newly formed position, Bennett can utilize her diverse skillset and background to contribute to the growth and expansion of the NPA RV and Marine division.
“Increasing the RV and Marine staff will allow us to serve our lenders, OEMs and dealers better,” says Matt Amata, NPA vice president of RV and Marine. “I’m thrilled to have Shannon helping with the logistics and communications. She’s a great addition to the team.”
Wilkinson, now the production supervisor for RV and Marine and Specialty Product, will be instrumental in NPA’s data collection and processing, bringing with him predelivery inspector and service writer experience. He has fine-tuned the world-renowned NPA Condition Reports to cater to the unique attributes of both RVs and boats, the company said.
“I am looking forward to being a part of the team that is working so hard to build the RV and Marine division and a program that becomes the new industry standard,” Wilkinson said.
