Carmaking group Stellantis has announced changes to its UK management team.

New appointments include Nicola Dobson (pictured) as Peugeot managing director, Giuseppe Cava as Fiat, Fiat Professional, and Abarth managing director, Nick Richards as pre-owned vehicles director, and Tom Ray as B2B director.

Dobson was most recently pre-owned director for Stellantis UK, and has also held a wide variety of roles in aftersales, distribution, sales and marketing.

Cava has been with Stellantis since 2018, most recently as UK marketing director for Fiat and Abarth. He replaces Damien Dally, who will now focus solely on Leapmotor as brand director for the UK.

Richards started with the group as a graduate trainee in 1993, and was most recently responsible for UK network development.

Ray has been with the group since 2004, and was most recently B2B operations director. In his new role, he will oversee B2B sales across all channels for Stellantis UK brands.

Group managing director Eurig Druce said: “I would like to warmly congratulate Nicola, Giuseppe, Nick, Tom and Damien on their new roles.  

“I’m delighted to be able to build from the talent within our group and I wish them every success in delivering our Dare Forward 2030 commitments, working alongside our highly valued retailer partners.”
