ConsumerOne is being introduced to put the changing needs of Toyota's customers at the heart of its commercial activities. It will centralise consumer data to create a new 'Single View of the Consumer', delivering insights, data and intelligence that can be used to develop new customer-focused projects.
Cooper said: "I am delighted to be given the opportunity to help deliver this exciting new venture, which promises to take consumer insights and harness the potential of new technologies and systems to achieve a more rewarding experience for our customers. The team will be working closely with other functions right across the business, including the Toyota and Lexus networks, to ensure we have the ideal platform for quick and effective development and innovation."
