Change in the Renault board of directors

As of September 16, Christian Stein will take over the position of Chief Communications Officer of the Renault Group, replacing Stéphanie Cau, who is leaving the company. The Frenchman will be responsible for the communication of all Group activities and will report directly to Renault CEO Luca de Meo.

The Renault boss is delighted to welcome a good acquaintance from his own Seat years to the management team. "Christian has worked alongside me for many years and he has my full confidence," says Luca de Meo. "His international experience will enable us to support and strengthen the power of our brands and the Group's influence in all countries."

Christian Stein began his career at PSA in 1991, where he remained until 2011, taking on increasing responsibility in the sales and marketing department. During these years he worked and lived in Belgium, France, Spain and the UK. In 2011, he joined the Volkswagen Group as Global Marketing Director for the Seat brand, before taking on the position of Global Communications and Public Affairs Director for Seat S.A. and its Seat and Cupra brands in 2015.

After more than 20 years abroad, Christian Stein finally returned to France in November 2020 when he joined Renault Group as Brand Communications Director before becoming Sales and Customer Experience Director at Ampere in November 2023. (aum)
