Luxury car market leader Mercedes-Benz India has announced a top-management organisational change.
The company has elevated Santosh Iyer, currently its Vice-President, Sales & Marketing, to the post of Managing Director and CEO.
Santosh Iyer replaces Martin Schwenk, who, after an extremely successful four-year stint in India, will take over as President and CEO of Mercedes-Benz Thailand.
Both these appointments will be effective from January 1, 2023. Iyer is the first Indian – and, at 46, also the youngest – to take charge at the helm of affairs of Mercedes-Benz India.
Santosh Iyer was appointed vice president of the firm for customer services and retail training in 2016.
Santosh Iyer has been working at Mercedes-Benz India since 2009 and has held executive positions in a variety of departments, including sales, marketing, Customer care, communications, and customer relationship management.
