TROY, Mich., May 4, 2021 – Inteva Products, a leading global automotive supplier of engineered components and systems, announced today that Michelle Brown has succeeded Tom Munley as Vice President, Human Resources following Munley’s retirement on April 30.
Brown, who previously served as Global Director of Compensation and Benefits, has been with Inteva since the company’s founding in 2008 and has 25 years of experience in human resources in the automotive industry. She holds a master’s degree in human resources management from Walsh College and a bachelor’s degree from Alma College.

“I am honored to take on this role and help shape the future of Inteva’s workforce and success,” said Brown. “I thank Tom for his leadership and I am excited to join our executive leadership team.”

“Michelle’s experience in human resources and her deep knowledge of Inteva’s people and culture make her the ideal choice to follow Tom,” said Gerard Roose, President and CEO. “I believe Michelle can continue to build on the principles and practices she has helped to shape since Inteva’s founding to ensure we continue to be an employer of choice in the automotive industry.”

Munley’s retirement comes after a 43-year career in the automotive industry, including 13 years with Inteva. He previously served in multiple human resources roles with General Motors and Delphi.

“Tom has been a strong leader for Inteva over the last 13 years, and we would not have weathered the challenges our industry has faced without his abilities to recruit and retain top-flight talent throughout the company,” said Roose.

A replacement for Brown’s former position will be identified later. Brown will report directly to Roose and will oversee the company’s global HR operations.
