Former Mercedes-Benz Australia Pacific Truck and Bus director Michael May has been announced as the new managing director for Iveco Trucks Australia Limited from early 2020.
May replaces Bruce Healy who was the managing director for Iveco Trucks Australia and New Zealand from early 2018. Healy has accepted the role of Brand Leader of another CNH Industrial division – New Holland Agriculture.
Healy previously held the position of Brand Leader with another CNH Industrial company, CASE IH. With a natural personal affinity for the rural communities, this new role will see him reconnecting with the farming community and New Holland’s extensive range of agricultural products; from tractors and combine harvesters to balers and hay tools.
May is a 20-year Daimler veteran. He has a background in engineering and after-sales and having been Dealer Principal of two Melbourne-based Daimler truck dealerships, brings extensive leadership and industry expertise to Iveco.
He joins Iveco following the recent introduction of the Heavy Duty Stralis X-Way range and the on-going success of the Daily Light Duty models. Further key product actions are planned for 2020.
The appointments of both Healy and May will take effect, on a transitional basis, from early 2020.
