VINZ said Gisbon will “lead the company through a period of anticipated rapid global change in road freight transport and private vehicle use, making certain that the business meets its regulatory obligations to ensure that vehicles driven on New Zealand roads are safe”. 

Stevens departed the organisation at the end of July with VINZ director Euan Philpot stepping in as interim chief executive. 

Gibson commenced his new role on August 22. He resigned from Ports of Auckland in May last year after 10 years there as chief executive.
