January 19th, 2010 by Richard Aucock
JAGUAR Land Rover has given its finance department a boost with the appointment of a new director.
Former Toyota vice president David Betteley has become the firm’s new financial services director.
He’s now going to lead Jaguar Land Rover finance services across the glove, reporting to customer service director Mike Wright.
‘Having someone of David’s expertise and knowledge joining Jaguar Land Rover is a reflection of our determination to provide the highest standards in every area of our business,’ said Wright.
For his part, Betteley said customer service will be his focus. ‘Offering optimum financial services opportunities has never been more important, particularly in the premium vehicle segments and I am looking forward to delivering new levels of excellence for Jaguar and Land Rover customers.
The Financial Services product portfolio we offer to dealers and customers for the Jaguar and Land Rover brands across the world is a vital element in us taking leadership in delivering an outstanding customer experience.
Betteley will be directing financial products from a number of service providers worldwide, including Fiat Credit Aricole, Chase Manhattan and Wesbank. These have all replaced previous arrangements with Ford Credit.
Manchester City-supporting Betteley starts his new role from today.
