Jaguar Land Rover has appointed the company’s head of UK operations, Rawdon Glover, to oversee the revamped Jaguar brand. Glover’s title will be "Brand Managing Director, Jaguar," JLR said in a statement. Glover’s former job as managing director of JLR's UK operations will be managed on an interim basis by Paddy McGillycuddy, currently the head of sales and marketing in the UK, JLR said. He was initially appointed director of global customer service for JLR, before moving to the UK position in June 2018, according to his Linkedin profile. The Jaguar brand has seen its vehicle sales decline as JLR directed scarce semi-conductors toward its highly profitable Land Rover models, including the Range Rover, Range Rover Sport and Defender.
