Rolls-Royce Holdings PLC (RR.LN) said Wednesday that it has
appointed Chris Cholerton as president of its civil-aerospace
business and Tom Bell as president of its enlarged defense
business.
The U.K.-based aircraft-engine maker said on Jan. 17 that it had
launched a strategic review of its commercial-marine business as
part of the simplification and restructuring of its business as it
reduces its five operating businesses to three core units.
Mr. Cholerton was formerly the president of the company's
defense business, while Mr. Bell--who was president of
Rolls-Royce's defense business before he left in 2015--rejoins the
company after serving as senior vice president of global sales and
marketing for defense, space and security at Boeing Co. (BA).
