With immediate effect, Citroën's Scott Michael has been promoted to the position of head of commercial vehicles & business centre programme.

Michael takes up his new role, which will be based at Citroën UK's new Coventry head office, after 18 months as commercial vehicle operations manager.

Michael (32) is a Business Studies and Spanish graduate of Hull University and has been with Citroën since 2003, when he started as fleet analyst. Subsequently, his Citroën career has seen him serve as an area fleet sales manager and as commercial vehicle sales manager.

Michael comments: "I am delighted to take up this new role with all the opportunities and challenges it will bring. Since its inception, Citroën's Business Centre programme has been a major success and our LCV sales performance has remained very strong. Both these factors have played key roles in enabling Citroën to expand its business, especially in the SME sector, and I am looking forward to working on maintaining this growth."
