MOTOR Information Systems today announced that Jeff Nosek has been promoted to deputy group head, Hearst Transportation, effective January 1, 2026. The announcement was made by Steven R. Swartz, president and chief executive officer of Hearst, and Sean Lanagan, president of Hearst Transportation and president and chief executive officer of CAMP Systems International, Inc.
In this expanded role, Nosek will report to Lanagan and will continue serving as president of Hearst-owned MOTOR Information Systems. He will also assume group-level responsibilities across Hearst Transportation’s automotive businesses.
Hearst Transportation is Hearst’s transportation data and software group, bringing together four industry-leading companies: CAMP Systems International, specializing in aviation maintenance tracking and health-monitoring software; Black Book, a provider of vehicle valuation and analytics; MOTOR Information Systems, focused on automotive parts and repair data; and Noregon Systems, delivering diagnostics and prognostics solutions for heavy-duty trucks.
These companies operate within Hearst’s Business Media portfolio, which includes a broad range of B2B software and data services — such as Fitch Group and Hearst’s healthcare businesses — and collectively account for approximately 60% of Hearst’s total profits.
“I am honored by the opportunity to serve as deputy group head of Hearst Transportation,” says Nosek. “Our transportation businesses are leaders in their respective markets. I look forward to helping align our collective expertise to further strengthen Hearst’s position in the global B2B software and data landscape and to drive continued growth across our automotive businesses.”
Nosek brings more than two decades of experience in software, data, and professional services across the automotive and manufacturing sectors. He joined MOTOR in 2016, serving as senior vice president of sales and later executive vice president of revenue. During that time, he played a key role in repositioning MOTOR’s data licensing business toward cloud-enabled Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and Data-as-a-Service (DaaS) models, fueling new customer acquisition and revenue growth. He was named president of MOTOR in December 2021.
Prior to joining MOTOR, Nosek was vice president of sales at CDK Global and at Automatic Data Processing (ADP). He also held various sales leadership positions within Compuware. Nosek holds a bachelor’s degree from Central Michigan University and is a graduate of Hearst’s executive development program, Hearst Management Institute.
