Auto supplier Lear Corporation is establishing a global operating structure for its two business groups and has named Louis Salvatore president, global seating systems, and Raymond Scott president, global electrical and electronic systems.


In their new roles, Salvatore and Scott will continue to report to chairman, CEO and president, Bob Rossiter.


“Over the past two years, we have made significant progress in streamlining our organisation, restructuring our operations and increasing our focus on our seating and electrical and electronic businesses to improve our long-term competitiveness,” said Rossiter.


“The next step to further strengthen and grow our company is to establish global organisations for these core businesses. This new structure will best support the global strategies of our customers and allow us to take full advantage of our global scale, leverage our worldwide engineering and product development resources and access the lowest possible manufacturing and sourcing available.”


Scott, 42, was previously senior vice president and president of Lear’s North American seating systems. Most recently, Salvatore was senior vice president and president of Lear’s Asian operations and Asian customer group.
