QUITTERIE DE PELLEPORT APPOINTED GENERAL SECRETARY OF RENAULT GROUP

Boulogne-Billancourt, 29 June 2026 – One year after his appointment as Chief Executive Officer, François Provost continues the transformation of Renault Group and announces the appointment of Quitterie de Pelleport, currently Chief Legal Officer, as General Secretary, effective from 1 July 2026.

The creation of the General Secretary role reflects the conviction that sustainable performance is built on strong governance and the collective ability to anticipate and support major transformations – regulatory, industrial, environmental and societal – in order to strengthen the Group’s resilience and support its development in a changing environment.

Under Quitterie de Pelleport’s leadership, the General Secretariat brings together the following functions and activities: Legal, Audit, Risk, Ethics & Compliance, Prevention and Protection, Sustainability, Strategic Partnerships, Defense activities; and Circular Economy activities The Future Is Neutral.

In addition, following the departure of Josep-Maria Recasens, Renault Group also announces the appointment of Sandra Gomez as Chief Product & Program Officer. Sandra Gomez and Saad Khaled, Chief Strategy Officer, will both report to François Provost, who will therefore directly oversee strategy and the futuREady product plan – 36 new models by 2030 – together with the CEOs of the Brands.

François Provost, CEO of Renault Group, said: “Four months after the launch of our futuREady plan, we are continuing the transformation of Renault Group with a clear focus on simplification and speed of execution. The creation of the General Secretariat is a key lever to strengthen our governance and our capacity to deliver on our ambitions. This role will also contribute to the development of certain high-potential activities. I have every confidence in Quitterie to lead this strategic function. At the same time, we are simplifying the scope of product, programs and strategy to accelerate the strengthening of our vehicle range and technologies.”

Renault Group finally announces the appointment of François Lavernos as Chief Information & Digital Officer, reporting to François Provost. This appointment follows the departure of Frédéric Vincent, who is leaving the Group to focus on personal projects.
