\nBack on July 1st of 2008, Tom Purves became Rolls-Royce<\/a>‘s new CEO. At the time, we remarked<\/a> that the move was interesting due to parent company BMW’s mandatory retirement age of 60, which Purves was just about to turn when he got the top spot at R-R. Not surprisingly, then, the automaker has announced a new commander-in-chief, Torsten Mueller.<\/p>\n

Mueller is a longtime member of the BMW<\/a> Group’s senior management, having worked for the German automaker for the last 20 years. Most recently, Mueller had been running BMW global product management, though his most significant contribution to the company may be his role in helping the revived Mini brand get off the ground back in 2000.<\/p>\n

Mueller will assume the role of Rolls-Royce CEO at the end of March 2010, which is also the time when Tom Purves will retire after 25 years service with the BMW Group.<\/p>\n
