ŠKODA Australia will appoint Michael Irmer to lead the ŠKODA team, effective March 1.
Irmer returns to Australia from his most recent position at Volkswagen AG in Wolfsburg, Germany, where he has been responsible for product and price planning for the China and ASEAN markets.
Prior to this, he held senior positions with Volkswagen Group Australia from 2004 until 2009 as both financial controller and dealer development manager.
With a long-standing career within the Volkswagen Group, Irmer possesses extensive knowledge of both the Australian global automotive markets and is well positioned to lead the ŠKODA brand to a successful 2013.
Anke Koeckler, Volkswagen Group Australia’s managing director, is delighted to welcome Irmer to the management team.
“Michael brings a wealth of experience and skills to the position and will provide the ŠKODA brand with the focus and strategic direction to succeed in a very competitive market,” says Koeckler.
