The chief executive of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, Ian Robertson, has been appointed as sales and marketing director for parent company BMW Group. The move makes him the first Briton to join BMW's board of directors, a Rolls-Royce official told the BBC. Mr Robertson, who used to head up BMW's operations in South Africa, replaces Stefan Krause who will join Deutsche Bank as chief financial officer (CFO). Mr Krause had in the past been tipped as a possible chief executive of BMW.
