Changes are coming at Ford.

The American automaker’s new CEO, Jim Farley, started off his first day in the top job by making changes in the C-suite. Notably, the auto manufacturer is looking for a new chief marketer.

Joy Falotico, who has served as president of Lincoln and CMO of Ford for two and a half years, will transition to “further growing Ford’s luxury brand.” Essentially, that means after a new CMO is found, Falotico will run the Lincoln brand.

The change, Ford said in a statement, “will strengthen its commitment to two key areas by having separate senior leaders run the Lincoln Motor Company and global marketing.”
