Former Aston boss plugs in to EV bus-maker
BY NEIL DOWLING | 23rd Jul 2020
ASTON Martin’s former president and chief executive Andy Palmer has been appointed non-executive chairman of UK bus manufacturer Optare.
Dr Palmer left Aston Martin in May after the struggling British sports-luxury car-maker, backed by a consortium of new investors led by recently appointed executive chairman Lawrence Stroll, turned to former Mercedes-AMG boss Tobias Moers to steer it through its financial difficulties.
