The Smart Mobility business area focuses on businesses involving mobility services, fleet operators and commercial vehicle manufacturers.
Meckseper will be responsible for the strategic development and executive management of multiple departments, including commercial and specialty vehicles, transportation and aftermarket technologies.

"It has been an honor to work alongside Jim over the years. His leadership and experience have been invaluable to Continental. We congratulate him on a wonderful career and wish him well in his well-deserved retirement," said Aruna Anand, President and Chief Executive Officer, Continental Automotive, North America.

"We are also excited to welcome Rosa to the ranks of North American leadership. Their experience and expertise will be invaluable as we focus on expanding our Smart Mobility initiatives," said Anand.

Meckseper joined Continental in 2018 as Global Head of Strategy and Innovation in Germany, where she was responsible for cross-division technology strategy to advance future mobility research projects.

Since then, she has also served as global head of corporate strategy and as a member of the automotive aftermarket management team in Germany.

"I'm thrilled to seize this new opportunity and join a team that is changing the way people experience mobility," Meckseper said.

"It's an exciting time within our industry as we innovate pioneering technology aimed at producing greater efficiency and comfort. I look forward to building into the future and continuing to develop innovative and unique solutions in the smart mobility space."
