LONDON - Chrysler UK has appointed Nigel Land as its marketing director with responsibility for the Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge brands.

Land, who has previously worked at Nissan in a variety of roles, including marketing, joins from his own marketing consultancy, where he advised SMEs.

The marketing director role has been vacant for months and was most recently overseen by Chrysler managing director Simon Elliott. In January, Elliott was reappointed to the UK managing director role following the company's takeover by Cerberus Capital Management.

Elliott had previously been managing director before stepping down two years ago to become president and chief executive of Chrysler China. He replaced Peter Lambert, who left after the sale was completed.
