Westlands appoints ex-Toyota executive as new MD

Mark Roden, general manager Toyota and Lexus fleet and remarketing services at Toyota GB, has been appointed managing director of Toyota dealer Westlands Group.

Westlands operates Toyota outlets in Stourbridge, Bromsgrove, Hereford and Worcester.

Nick Poraj-Wilczynski, chairman of Westlands, said: "I am delighted to have secured Mark's services.

"His experience at senior levels across the industry and in particular within Toyota make him ideally suited to drive the development of the group."

Ewan Shepherd succeeds Roden at Toyota, moving to his new role on 1 November. He has 11 years' experience with Toyota, most recently as general manager Lexus operations.

Shepherd said: "I look forward to continuing the excellent work done by Mark and his team and moving forward to maximise the potential of our model ranges for fleet customers.
