GCA launches ‘Our Aftermarket’ video series to spotlight career opportunities

Glen Callum Associates (GCA) has launched ‘Our Aftermarket’, a new campaign designed to spotlight the breadth of exciting career opportunities in the UK’s £21 billion automotive aftermarket.

The campaign features a series of candid, inspiring interviews with three respected industry leaders: Nigel Duffield (PHINIA Delphi), Steve Jarnet (Corteco UK) and Neil Grant (HELLA UK).

Each shares their personal career journey – from early roles to top-level leadership – shining a light on the variety of pathways the aftermarket offers.

“For too long, the term ‘aftermarket’ has been misunderstood,” said Glen Shepherd, GCA Director. “It’s not just garages and grease. We’re talking tech, data, EV innovation, senior leadership and digital transformation. It’s time we told that story.”

The first video, now live on GCA’s YouTube channel, features Nigel Duffield reflecting on his rise through the industry and the vast range of roles and opportunities on offer: “At [PHINIA Delphi] at the moment, there’s a logistical department, there’s a sales department, there’s a digital media department, there’s a marketing department, and there’s a HR department… all of these businesses still have the same internal organisation. It’s just that it happens to be in the automotive aftermarket.”

The aim? To position the aftermarket as a sector of choice, not chance, and encourage companies to better showcase progression routes, upskilling opportunities and the real-world impact of a career in this dynamic, future-focused industry.

Watch Episode One now, with more episodes featuring Steve Jarnet and Neil Grant launching soon.
