As Aston Martin opens its brand new St Athan facility ready for production of its DBX, Nick Gibbs meets director of manufacturing at the plant, Scott Ward
It is Scott Ward’s job to make sure production of the DBX starts on time in late spring of next year. He has been in charge since 2017, when he was promoted from director of production in charge of body construction and paintshops at Gaydon.
Ward has been at Aston Martin since 2011, joining initially to work on the ill-fated Cygnet baby Aston. Before that he spent eight years at Bentley at Crewe after starting out in the business at (where else?) MG Rover.
