Commenting on his appointment, Mark said: “The transformation of Lotus is well under way and the period ahead is going to be hugely busy and exciting for all involved. I’m delighted to be appointed CFO at this pivotal time in this iconic brand’s development. My thanks to Robert Gong who I’ll be replacing as he resumes responsibilities at Geely.”
