Vauxhall fleet sales and remarketing director James Taylor has been promoted to the wider role of general sales director, effective immediately.  

James Taylor takes on the all-encompassing role of general sales director at Vauxhall

The newly created role sees Taylor become responsible for all vehicle sales activities, including fleet but also other channels.

“This well-earned promotion gives James the scope to concentrate as much, and more, on B2C new-vehicle channels as on pure B2B and used vehicle remarketing,” said Stephen Norman, group managing director Vauxhall Motors and Opel Ireland.

Stephanie Howson remains as Vauxhall’s retail sales director, reporting hierarchically to Norman and now functionally to Taylor.

“I am delighted to take up my new position as general sales director, working with a great team to deliver our strategic PACE! plan,” said James Taylor. “Together, our goal is to deliver the sales growth and brand reputation enhancement that our great products and services deserve.”
