Renault's CEO Jean-Dominique Senard is set to leave his post in 2027, marking the end of a tumultuous six-year tenure that followed the high-profile arrest of former CEO Carlos Ghosn in 2018. Senard, 73, was appointed by the French government to stabilize the struggling car manufacturer and restore investor confidence. During his time at the helm, Senard has navigated the company through significant challenges, including the global pandemic and a major restructuring effort. His departure will likely trigger a leadership succession process, with the French government and Renault's board of directors facing the task of finding a suitable replacement to steer the company forward.
Senard, 73, was brought in from Michelin by the French government to stabilize Renault after the 2018 arrest of Carlos Ghosn. He will step down when his term ends in 2027.
