ABOUT MICHAEL HEYWOOD

I work across brand, retail, and customer experience in the luxury automotive space, with a career shaped by both dealer-side and OEM leadership roles.For more than 16 years at Bentley Motors, I’ve held regional leadership, marketing operations, and aftersales positions, giving me a cross-functional view of how strategy becomes execution — and where it often breaks down. My focus has been on aligning brand intent with real-world retail performance through clear priorities, practical systems, and strong partnerships with dealer networks.I’m most engaged when working on complex, interconnected problems: improving demand generation while protecting brand equity, using data to support better decisions, and building processes that scale without losing the human element.I value clarity, long-term thinking, and relationships built on trust — and I’m always open to thoughtful conversations around brand leadership, retail performance, and customer experience.
