New man at the top for Renault Trucks28 April 2010

Marc Martinez has been appointed managing director of Renault Trucks in the UK. Taking up the post on 1 July 2010, Martinez will replace Laurent Farman, who takes over the same post at Renault Trucks in Spain.

On the books at Renault for 22 years, Martinez has been involved primarily in sales roles, working his way up to managing director of Renault Trucks France in 2005.

The 46-year-old has a masters degree in business and has gained a great deal of experience while steering the French division through the recent recession.

"The UK is a huge opportunity for me that will add a whole new, more international, dimension to my career," says Martinez.

"Most importantly, I will be focusing on some key priorities for Renault Trucks in the UK. To develop the profitability of the company in a tough economic climate and to consolidate the Renault Trucks brand in the UK truck market.

"With the latter, our dealer network will be a key factor in our success, so I am looking forward to working very closely with them and developing the quality of our product and service offers."
