Tata Motors has appointed Guenter Butschek as its chief executive officer and managing director.
Butschek will lead all operations of Tata Motors in India and in international markets including South Korea, Thailand, Indonesia and South Africa.
The appointment comes nearly two years after the death of its former managing director Karl Slym.
Jaguar Land Rover would continue to be managed by its chief executive officer and director, Ralf Speth, who is also on the board of Tata Motors. Butschek is expected to join the company by February 15, 2016, Tata Motors said.
Butschek joins Tata Motors after his last assignment at Airbus Group, where he served as chief operating officer and was a member of the group executive committee.
