The promotion from OEM and Financier Director to CRO will form the next chapter in Johnston’s 12-year career with Automotive Transformation Group. He stated: “This is an exciting time for Automotive Transformation Group, and I am thrilled to be playing such a key part in the development of the business’ brand and evolving product suite. Having spent over two decades working with both automotive manufacturers and retailers, I look forward to seeing the positive impact I can make, leveraging synergies with the wider team to deliver automotive transformation for our customers.”
Tim Smith, Chief Executive Officer, added: “Having worked with Richard for many years I have no doubt he will be a tremendous success in his new role. He has a long track record of delivering results to his customers and building long-term relationships. Furthermore, his knowledge of how technology can be applied to deliver tangible benefits to automotive organisations is outstanding. I am delighted to have him join our executive team as we continue to drive efficiencies throughout the vehicle sales process.”
