Click the thumbs up >Volkswagen UK has appointed Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles UK’s James Douglas as its new head of sales operations.
Set to start his new role in June, Douglas makes the move at an important time for the brand as it begins to accelerate the roll-out of its ID electric vehicle (EV) product line-up and bring experience of rolling-out an agency sales model for VW’s fleet business.
He replaces Patrick McGillycuddy who has “moved to a role in the automotive industry outside Volkswagen Group UK”, the brand said.
Douglas has worked in Volkswagen Group for eight years, having joined the business as head of fleet for Audi, before taking on the role as Head of Sales Operations for Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles in 2017.
