Ajay has been a significant part of the carsales growth story and this new role is a natural evolution in his journey. I’m very confident Ajay has the experience, dedication and capability to oversee the ongoing development and growth of our Australian business.”

In addition, there will be a newly created executive leadership role for a Chief Product and Information Officer, which will head up the Group’s Product, Technology, Data and Program functions.
