Family owned and operated Tire Discounters, the nation’s eighth largest independent tire retailer, announced that we have named Kevin Burke as its senior vice president of finance and treasurer.
Burke most recently served as senior vice president and chief financial officer of the Aurora Casket Company. In his new position with Tire Discounters, he will be a member of the leadership team – overseeing the company’s entire finance and accounting function.
Burke says he’s found a perfect opportunity: “I am proud to join Tire Discounters and be part of a team and organization with a great family history. Tire Discounters is positioned to continue expansion across our regions and I'm eager to be a part of that continued growth. I believe it's an exciting time to join the organization. The Tire Discounters role presented a perfect match for my skills professionally. The icing on the cake is that my family and I will continue making our home in Cincinnati!”
“Kevin is incredibly talented and we are lucky to have him join our team,” said Tire Discounters CEO Paul Brunner. “His background of broad financial experience will undoubtedly help the effort to improve our operations.”
Tire Discounters accounting and finance departments are growing in order to keep pace with the company’s expansion, and Burke will spearhead that effort.
Over the course of his nearly three-decade career in the financial industry, Burke has held an extensive variety of positions with increasing responsibility, including internal auditor, controller and vice president of finance for an impressive list of companies including Eaton, Dana Corp and Crane.
