In addition to Isaacson, Menke joins Adam Lee, chairman; Don Lee, president; and Jim Mandel, president Maine auto credit, as an owner of the business.
“Bill has worked for Lee for nearly 25 years and we are very pleased to welcome him as a partner in our business,” Isaacson said in a news release.
Menke has most recently served as general manager for all of Lee’s Auburn operations, duties he will continue to handle, in addition to his new role in helping to oversee the larger Lee Auto Malls entity and its 19 locations throughout Maine.
“Bill has an excellent understanding of all aspects of the business and is very well respected at all levels of the organization,” Isaacson said. “He has forged strong relationships with our manufacturers, other dealerships here in Maine, and with our many vendors, making him a terrific addition to our ownership group.”
Menke, 46, grew up in Illinois and moved to Maine shortly after finishing high school. He has held a variety of positions in sales, finance and management since joining Lee Auto Malls in 1993. Menke, his wife Sarah and two daughters reside in Auburn.
