Yeah,he worked there till 2001(Impreza P2000 and the 2001 Impreza were his works),and was poached by Wilson in 2002 with his first work for Ford being the Focus RS WRC 03.He has been with M-Sport since.

sorry for the OT, 1997 was the first ever season I watched of the WRC and I didn't react to it then (9 yo) but I do now. Why did Mitsubishi field two cars (lancer and Carisma)? Did they homologate both cars for one team?
