Hij behaalde een diploma in communicatie, aangevuld met een internationaal uitwisselingsprogramma in Zweden, en voltooide het Advanced Automotive Management programma georganiseerd door Febiac en Ichec Management School.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bekend figuur<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Professioneel is hij een bekende figuur in het Belgische autolandschap, met een carri\u00e8re in commerci\u00eble en netwerkfuncties, meest recentelijk als netwerkmanager voor Renault Belux.<\/p>\n<p>Vanaf 2018 bekleedde hij verschillende managementfuncties binnen de Fiat-groep - later ge\u00efntegreerd in Stellantis - waaronder verkoopdirecteur voor Fiat, Abarth en Fiat Professional Belux.<\/p>\n<p>Vervolgens werd hij Commercial Policy Manager voor Europa, voordat hij werd benoemd tot Sales Director Belux voor een breed portfolio van merken, waaronder Peugeot, Citro\u00ebn, Opel, Fiat en Jeep. Deze internationale ervaring met meerdere merken zal naar verwachting een sterke troef zijn in zijn nieuwe functie.<\/p>\n<p>Hij neemt het stokje over van Jan Schmook, een van de meest ervaren profielen van Renault Belux. Schmook begon zijn carri\u00e8re bij Renault in 1986 als ingenieur en werkte mee aan de ontwikkeling van de eerste Renault-modellen voordat hij een commerci\u00eble functie kreeg.<\/p>\n<p>Vanaf het einde van de jaren 1990 werd hij een belangrijk lid van het managementcomit\u00e9 van Belux en bekleedde hij functies in de naverkoop, de detailhandel en het regionale management.<\/p>\n<p>Hij werd in 2022 benoemd tot Sales Director en speelde een centrale rol in het behoud van de marktpositie van Renault in een periode die werd gekenmerkt door aanbodbeperkingen, toenemende concurrentie en de eerste versnelling van de elektrificatie. Zijn carri\u00e8re weerspiegelt een zeldzame combinatie van technische en commerci\u00eble expertise, en hij heeft een belangrijke rol gespeeld bij het vormgeven van de aanwezigheid van Renault op lange termijn in Belgi\u00eb en Luxemburg.<\/p>\n<p>De overgang van Schmook naar Marneffe weerspiegelt eerder continu\u00efteit dan ontwrichting. Renault kiest voor een ervaren insider om een strategie voort te zetten die steeds meer gericht is op waardecreatie, elektrificatie en netwerkeffici\u00ebntie.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Strategisch belang voor Renault<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>De Belux-regio zelf is van strategisch belang voor Renault. In 2025 verkocht de groep 67.473 voertuigen in Belgi\u00eb en Luxemburg, goed voor een marktaandeel van 12,6%, waarmee het een van de top tien markten van Renault wereldwijd is, aldus Renault Group.<\/p>\n<p>Alleen al in Belgi\u00eb behoorde Renault tot de grootste volumemerken en presteerde het zelfs nog beter in het kanaal voor particuliere klanten, waar het op het podium stond.<\/p>\n<p>Het merk behoudt ook een leidende positie in lichte bedrijfsvoertuigen, waar het consequent nummer \u00e9\u00e9n is in Belux, ondersteund door sterke modellen zoals de Kangoo en Trafic.<\/p>\n<p>Elektrificatie wordt een steeds belangrijkere motor voor prestaties: Renault registreerde een sterke groei in de verkoop van hybride en elektrische voertuigen in 2025, waarbij ge\u00eblektrificeerde voertuigen een snel groeiend aandeel van de inschrijvingen voor hun rekening nemen, wat de bredere verschuiving op de Belgische bedrijfswagenmarkt weerspiegelt.<\/p>\n<p>Tegelijkertijd is Belgi\u00eb een veeleisende omgeving, gekenmerkt door intense concurrentie, een hoog aandeel inschrijvingen van wagenparken en snel evoluerende fiscale kaders die het aankoopgedrag be\u00efnvloeden. Dit maakt van de regio zowel een belangrijke bijdrager als een strategische testmarkt voor de bredere Europese ambities van Renault.<\/p>\n<p>In deze context is de rol van de Sales Director cruciaal. Naast het beheren van volumes houdt deze functie ook in dat er een balans moet worden gevonden tussen retail- en fleetkanalen, dat prijsstrategie\u00ebn moeten worden aangestuurd en dat het dealernetwerk op \u00e9\u00e9n lijn moet worden gebracht.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Renault has appointed Thomas Marneffe as the new Sales Director for the Renault brand in Belgium and Luxembourg (Belux), effective April 2026.
