He is now Co-founder and CTO at TheCarCrowd, pitched as the UK’s first investment platform for classic and prestige cars.
In a LinkedIn post, he said: “I have been blessed to have worked with, worked for, and led the most incredible of people. My colleagues have meant everything to me and made working joyful (most of the time!)”
He added: “I have grown up with this business, joining as a 23 year old straight out of university and have shared significant life moments with my Aldi family – getting engaged, buying my first house, getting married, buying my second house, buying my first car, becoming a father.”
“I have celebrated and I have been supported when mourning. My experiences here have shaped who I have become.”
“The career highlights have been plentiful, the mistakes I have made have helped me learn, with support from those around me.”
“I am indebted to this business and will forever hold it dear to my heart. I am also grateful to the suppliers/partners I have worked with over the years, we have delivered so much.”
“I am proud to be able to say I am Aldi, and humbled by the warmth of the business throughout my career and now as I head off to a new chapter. I leave with my head held high. Thank you.”
