Volvo Trucks NZ is welcoming a new national sales manager with the appointment of Scott Robinson.
Robinson has been associated with the Volvo truck brand in New Zealand for over 12 years.
He has been responsible for strengthening customer relationships as a Volvo account manager for the lower North Island and managing large fleet customers as national fleet sales manager.
Over this time, Robinson has grown his role through dedication, hard work and his ability to build strong customer relationships.
“Scott is a key part of the Volvo trucks team,” Motor Trucks Distributor (MTD) NZ general manager Rob Woods says.
“We are delighted to see him continue to grow and develop his career.”
MTD distributes Mack and Volvo Trucks to the New Zealand market.
Robinson grew up in a trucking family and has been around trucks and machinery from the age of five.
He gained his heavy vehicle licence aged 18 and became a tanker driver before progressing to a driver trainer role.
Over the past 12 years, he has also been involved in product training for both Mack and Volvo brands across the country.
Robinson says there is one bit of advice he was given at the start of his career which has served him well:
“Never turn down the offer of a cup of tea from a customer!”
