General Motors named Mike Trevorrow SVP of global manufacturing, effective June 6, the automaker announced in a press release.
Trevorrow will serve a dual role, retaining his position as VP of global manufacturing engineering but will also oversee the automaker’s worldwide manufacturing operations, the company said. The combined units have more than 95,000 employees across 110 sites in 11 countries. Trevorrow will report to GM President Mark Reuss.
"Mike’s extensive experience in manufacturing operations and engineering, along with his steady leadership, make him the right choice to lead our global manufacturing organization into the future,” Reuss said in the announcement.
According to his LinkedIn profile, Trevorrow has served in a variety of management roles in engineering and manufacturing for GM since 2009. He succeeds Jens Peter Clausen who resigned as head of GM’s global manufacturing after less than a year in the role.
GM said Trevorrow’s more than 40 years of experience in manufacturing operations and engineering will help the company “effectively integrate advanced manufacturing technologies, accelerating our transition to software-defined vehicles while supporting GM’s broader innovation strategy.”
Trevorrow’s GM career began as director, launch and execution for North America Stamping Dies & Body Shop Tooling, per his LinkedIn. He was promoted to executive director, global body, in manufacturing engineering, and later served as plant executive director of the Lansing Region in Michigan.
In 2023, Trevorrow became VP of North American manufacturing and by early 2024 transitioned to VP of global manufacturing engineering at GM.
