Rob

Prep Centre Manager

Rob has been with Redgate Lodge since the opening day of our Shiremoor site, back in 2013.

Rob is a petrolhead in every sense of the word and he knows everything there is to know about cars. He is, quite simply, the go-to guy, especially when it comes to hot hatches and modified cars. Rob comes from a family of mechanics, but decided to keep his hands clean bar the odd occasion you will find him working on his own car.

When Rob isn’t working at work, he can be found socialising with friends, attending car shows and motorsport events up and down the country.
