French automaker PSA on Wednesday hired two executives it recruited just now from the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi alliance to head up its DS and Citroen brands and added them to its global executive committee.
PSA stated Beatrice Foucher, presently deputy DS chief executive and an ex-Renault manager would take the place of Yves Bonnefont as DS CEO.
The company stated that Vincent Cobee, currently deputy Citroen CEO and a former Nissan and Mitsubishi executive, would be taking place of Linda Jackson as Citroen CEO.
PSA, which is going through a merger with Italian-American automaker Fiat Chrysler, stated Bonnefont would lead a study on possible cost savings within the group.
