Appointment Bonhams

The Facts

On March 6, 2026, Bonhams announced key appointments to strengthen its Cars Department leadership team. Michael Squire has been appointed as Head of Europe, reporting to Global Managing Director Julie David. Robert Glover rejoins the department as Head of UK, also reporting to David. Tim Schofield, formerly Head of UK, moves to a new role as Head of UK Business Development. All three will be part of Julie David's leadership team, following her appointment as Global Managing Director in March.

The Signal

The appointments signal Bonhams' strategic push to solidify its position in the collector car market, particularly in Europe and the UK. Squire and Glover bring deep client relationships and consignment experience from rival auction houses, while Schofield's new role focuses on private collections and strategic growth. The moves indicate Bonhams is investing in specialist leadership to compete for top-tier consignments in a competitive auction sector.
