Steer Automotive Group has announced the appointment of Darren Mee as Chief Financial Officer as the business continues to expand and strengthen its leadership team.

The appointment supports Steer’s growth strategy and reflects its commitment to building board-level expertise as the group scales its operations.

Darren brings significant cross-sector experience, having held senior financial roles in both public and private organisations.
