Bell's appointment follows the decision of Marion Blakey to retire at the end of June after serving a three year term.
Chief executive Warren East said, “To support our ambitions in the [North America] region, we have made significant investments including at our facility in Indianapolis, where we are currently undertaking the largest single investment that Rolls-Royce has made in the U.S. since we acquired the former Allison Engine Company over 20 years ago.”
