Current Vauxhall Motors managing director Duncan Aldred is also to take on the role of chairman from 1 January, 2012, replacing Bill Parfitt, who becomes director, government affairs and public policy from the same date.
As chairman and managing director, Duncan Aldred will oversee all Vauxhall operations, including the company’s HR function and personnel in the UK plants at Ellesmere Port and Luton.
Parfitt will continue to pursue his role in government liaison and as negotiator and supporter of growth in the UK supply chain.
“During his tenure, Bill has led the company to many victories including the recent allocation of the next generation Vivaro which starts production in 2014 at Vauxhall’s Luton plant,” said a Vauxhall Motors statement.
“Bill is also an avid supporter of the UK automotive manufacturing sector, securing an increasing amount of new supply business with UK organisations.”
