Michelin Group has named Scott Clark as the next chairman and president of its North America operations, effective 1 January, while Joanie Martin has been announced as chief administrative officer, a newly created role in the company.

“Scott has represented the voice of Michelin customers with dependable passion in our organisation for more than 20 years,” said Jean-Michelin Group CEO, Dominique Senard.

“Scott is well equipped to lead Michelin North America, especially as we transition next year to a new organisational structure.”

Clark will be responsible for all customer-facing functions of the company, including sales and marketing for North America, as well as quality, technical and supply chain units. In the future, Michelin’s North America region will comprise the US and Canada.

Clark has served since 2007 as executive vice president of Michelin North America and chief operating officer of its passenger- and light-truck tyre unit spanning the US, Canada and Mexico. Previously, he served from 2005 to 2007 as senior vice president of Michelin’s heavy-truck tyre unit in Asia.

Across his 21-year tenure with Michelin, Clark has held various leadership roles in marketing, sales and other functions for units in Europe, Asia and North America. Earlier in his career, Clark worked for the Ralston Purina Company (now Nestle Purina PetCare).
