Moroccan Mohamed Bachiri will become the first Moroccan to lead the French car manufacture Renault Group starting December, announced Renault Group Morocco this Thursday, November 11.
For now, Marc Nassif still holds his position as the country’s managing director and CEO of Renault Group until December.
According to the French car manufacturer, Mohamed Bachiri will be in charge of the coordination and synergies of the group’s different activities in Morocco.
The new head of Renault Group will also keep his current position of director of the Tangier plant and coordinator of the industrial pole in Morocco, the same source added.
Mohamed Bachiri is a graduate of the University of Lille and has a European Executive MBA from the higher school of business (ESC) in Paris. After a career in human resources within the Lafarge Group, he joined Renault Group in 2006 as Human Resources chief.
Bachiri recruited and oversaw the training of 5,000 employees of the Renault plant in Tangier for the production of “Made in Morocco” cars, meeting the quality standards required internationally.
Renault’s Tangier car factory, the biggest in North Africa, required an initial investment of 600 million euros (USD785 million) and is expected to reach an annual production capacity of 400,000 vehicles in the upcoming years, according to Reuters.
