Chrysler Group has appointed Rob Thrift to head its corporate sales team. Thrift will move across from the Mercedes van and truck side of DaimlerChrysler’s UK business at the end of this month, and will report into the yet to be named replacement for sales director Lawrence Good.

Good left last month to become executive director, sales and marketing at Subaru and Isuzu, and his replacement will be named in the next few weeks.
