We Are Delighted That Neil Ford Has Joined Ascenso

To continue with our predicted growth into the UK Off Highway market, at Ascenso Tyres we are delighted to announce that Neil Ford has joined the Ascenso family. Neil’s career began with Michelin Tyres where he worked in several departments including Truck and Off Highway sales, before moving across to Technical OE1 and OE2 plus manufacturing.

After 17 years with Michelin, Neil joined Goodyear AG which saw him focus on technical, sales and training. This involved travelling extensively between Luxembourg and the UK.

Before Goodyear AG was sold, Neil moved to Titan International to transition their supply chain, it’s technical and manufacturing structure across Europe.

Soon after joining Titan, he was asked to go to Volgograd in Russia as Titan had purchased a third share in Voltyre Prom. It was here that Neil gained a huge amount of experience working on continuous improvements in both plant and offices, manufacturing European sizes, improving quality and supply for JD, Claas, CNH and AGCO.

Under Neil Ford’s leadership the strong sales team managed the existing and new tyre sizes, with his lead and main focus on OE1, OE2 and manufacturing.

Following his work at Titan, Neil consulted for several years for many companies from off Highway seating assigned to AGCO to Global OEM1.

With Neil joining Ascenso as a consultant for training and OE2, as well as supporting technical, his wealth of experience, industry knowledge makes him an invaluable member of the Ascenso family.
