The Grim Reaper of Dearborn strikes again

THE Ford Motor Company has axed Bruce Cambern, its director of Special Vehicle Operations, after less than a year in the job. Cambern, who was in charge of all Ford's sporting programs worldwide, took over from Dan Rivard only in November last year. He is expected to move to a new job in the company while his role is to be taken over by 48-year-old Dan Davis who has been with Ford for 21 years.

He has held a variety of positions in the components division, power train operations, product development and most recently has been Executive Director of Quality at Ford Automotive Operations.
