Laura Taylor will return as general manager of America’s Charleston and America’s Savannah auctions, while Bill McCready will take on duties as Regional Vice President of the Southeast.

“Helping America’s Auto Auctions renovate and grow over the past few years has been an exciting time in my life,” said Taylor. “I have loved the work and my involvement with the accomplishment our auctions have achieved. And now I am really happy to be returning to my home auction, and to be at home again with my beautiful granddaughters. I have a lot of time to make up with them, and a great desire to get back to my auction roots.”

Chuck Tapp, CEO of the company, stated, “Laura has been an important part of the expansion and development of America’s Group, just as she has been a dynamic force in our industry. Bill’s transition to Regional VP will be a smooth adjustment, as Bill and Laura have worked together for so many years.”

Bill McCready, who helmed both America’s Charleston and Savannah auctions when Taylor was named Senior Regional VP, will now be Regional VP of the South, as Taylor takes over as GM of both auctions.

“It’s an exciting time at America’s Auto Auction, and I am eager to begin this new role, and to continue our winning trajectory in 2024,” McCready said. 

AAA Senior Vice President Brian Thomas offered his gratitude to Taylor for her work.

 “A sincere thank you to Laura for her contributions and leadership while managing the SE these last two year,” he said. “Congratulations and best wishes to Bill on his new promotion. We look forward to leveraging his experience and leadership as we move forward into 2024. Congratulations to you both.”
