Tri-County Success Stories!
Patrick was hired into Tri-County International’s Dearborn facility in January 2010, originally to be a shipping and receiving clerk. When that position did not open up as anticipated, the company was able to move him into a delivery driver position. He served in this capacity until October of 2011, when the shipping and receiving position opened. He accepted this promotion as the shipping and receiving clerk and managed the Cores for this branch through July of 2014. During this time, he increased his knowledge of the parts industry and the company began grooming him again for a promotion. In 2014, when he expressed interest in moving into management, he was promoted into the position of Assistant Parts Manager Trainee. Finally, a Parts Manager position in our Ypsilanti facility opened up in late October of 2015, and Patrick was asked to take over this role and now serves as the Dearborn Parts Manager as of October 2021.
Zack came to us in 2011 as a general laborer, shop clean up, and building maintenance. Zack showed ambition and interest in learning and taking on more responsibilities. In 2013, Zack moved into the Diesel Mechanic training program and moved his way up to Triage Tech in 2016!
Terese started with the company as a receptionist in 2003 and after a few years, she moved from the Flint store to the Dearborn location, where she worked as an Accounting Administrative Assistant, Payables and Lease Processor. When we began opening more locations, Terese played a vital role handling multiple positions while keeping everything running smoothly! Starting in 2011, she moved into the Assistant Controller position before attending the ATD Dealer Academy to prepare her for her current role as Controller!
