Smith was the head of finance for Ford Europe, and had helped sell <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/aston-martin\/\">Aston Martin<\/a> to Dave Richards&#8217; group before he assisted in the sale of Jaguar to Tata. He has been the CEO since 2008, and just last year helped the company secure a &pound;340 million ($553 million) European Investment Bank loan guarantee. A short statement from the company itself gave no reason for the departure, saying only that Ravi Kant, company director, will take over in the meantime while a successor is found. <\/p>\n<p>[Source: Jaguar\/Land Rover, <a href=\"http:\/\/news.bbc.co.uk\/2\/hi\/business\/8479300.stm\">BBC<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/01\/26\/jaguar-land-rover-ceo-david-smith-stepping-down\/\">Jaguar-Land Rover CEO David Smith stepping down<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Tue, 26 Jan 2010 08:58:00 EST.
