October 18, 2023 // Franchising.com // Greenwood Village, CO – FullSpeed Automotive home to flagship brands Grease Monkey®, SpeeDee Oil Change & Auto Service®, and Kwik Kar®, recently promoted Jim Boswell to Chief Financial Officer of FullSpeed Automotive®.

Boswell began with FullSpeed as Vice President of Finance in 2021. Since then, he has been instrumental in building a high-quality finance team tailored to support the fast-paced demands of the brand. Notably, he built out a highly impactful Financial Planning and Analysis team and launched the brand’s Business Intelligence function. After superb performance, Boswell was named interim CFO in December 2022. He has since continued to elevate the finance and accounting function, ensuring alignment with the broader strategic goals of FullSpeed, making him the ideal candidate for a permanent CFO position.

“The last couple years with the FullSpeed team has been extremely rewarding,” said Boswell “I’ve enjoyed my time with the brand and have learned so much. I’m excited to continue to support the company as the brand makes an impact and continues to expand across the country.”

Before joining FullSpeed Automotive, Boswell worked as CFO for Streamline Brands for two years, doubling the company's EBITDA, professionalizing the accounting department, and installing an ERP system during that time. He also worked at Marco’s Pizza for seven years, building a finance and business intelligence function, helping the company to profitably grow from 250 to 950 units in a primarily franchised system. Prior to those roles, he held a series of finance positions at Darden Restaurants over four years, concluding with a role in Corporate Planning and Analysis.

“Jim’s extensive background has not gone unnoticed. I’ve had the privilege of working with him directly this past year, and have been impressed by his growth and contributions to the brand,” said Rob Lynch, Chief Executive Officer of FullSpeed Automotive. “He has generated meaningful savings, optimized cash flows, and forged solid relationships between accounting and finance while providing incisive support to multiple functional groups, demonstrating himself as an asset to FullSpeed. I am confident that our financial trajectory is set for unprecedented growth under his leadership.”
