NASHVILLE, Tenn. –

This week, Primeritus Financial Services bolstered its management team by adding two industry leaders who previously held leadership roles at OPENLANE and ADESA.

Joining Primeritus as vice president of sales and services is Ben Murdock, who most recently served as executive director of sales and services at OPENLANE and held several senior positions during his tenure at the company.

“Ben has 15 years experience in technology, management and sales operations servicing the automotive finance industry. We are very excited to have him as part of the Primeritus team,” Primeritus chief executive officer Chuck Tapp said about Murdock, who will report to executive vice president of sales, service and marketing Joe Mappes.

Meanwhile, Primeritus announced Chris McGinness accepted the position of general manager for company’s office in El Dorado Hills, Calif.

After working in public accounting during the early part of his professional life, McGinness began his management career at ADESA where he served as general manager of the company’s auction in Sacramento, Calif., for more than 10 years.

McGinness’ management experience spans a variety of operational functions, including remarketing, transportation and repossessions.

“We are very pleased to have Ben and Chris on the Primeritus team,” Primeritus chairman Cam Hitchcock said. “Both have broad and deep experience as industry leaders.

“Primeritus continues to raise the performance bar in the repossession services industry and the addition of Ben and Chris to our team reinforces our commitment to bringing our customers best-in-class solutions to asset location, recovery and liquidation,” Hitchcock went on to say.
