Jeff Brewer – Vice President
A leader in the automotive service industry for 28 years, Jeff started his career as a service and technical representative for FMC, an automotive alignment and diagnostic equipment company. He later created a business that provided the insurance industry with a comprehensive claims service solution. He successfully owned and operated this business for nine years until selling it in 1994.
Then, Jeff became an operations manager for Alamo Body and Paint in San Antonio, TX. He ran Alamo's consolidated body shop operations spanning three locations totaling $18 million in annual revenues.
When Alamo was sold, Jeff became the acquisitions team leader for Collision Team America (CTA). His accomplishments in that role including opening the first corporate-designed Saturn Body Shop facility in Dayton, OH, implementing a process-driven production system into the newly constructed 36,000 square-feet Sonic Automotive Collision Repair Center outside of Charlotte, NC and opening, staffing and operating the Carolina's first Sterling Auto Body Collision Repair Center in Charlotte.
During his tenure with Sterling Auto Body, Jeff was invited to assist in the design and implementation of best practice and process-driven collision repair systems with the Allstate Implementation Team. This pilot program was implemented throughout Florida, Illinois and Maryland.
Under Peter and Jeff's leadership, Scott Auto Body has thrived. Since opening its doors in 2006, it has evolved into the leading collision repair and automotive care company for premier vehicles such as Audi, Jaguar, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and the Nissan GTR in the Carolinas, and it has been the recipient of countless customer-satisfaction and customer-service awards.
