Ford shuffled its design lineup, naming Moray Callum executive director for its Americas operations, replacing Peter Horbury, who is returning to Volvo.

Horbury fills the slot vacated by Stephen Mattin, who left the company. The moves take effect May 1.

Callum has been with Ford since 1988, while Horbury returns to his roots at Volvo, where he first made a splash with the S40, the V40, the S60, the XC90 and the C30. He moved to Ford's Americas unit in 2004.

As Horbury's return to Volvo was being announced, we were the first publication in the world to interview him.

AutoWeek: Big news today?

Peter Horbury: Yes, I'm going on to Volvo. I'm not going backphysically I'm going back, yes, but mentally I'm taking a stride forward.
