David Cussans, UK truck sales director at MAN Truck & Bus UK Ltd, is to retire at the end of the summer after 33 years with the company.

Cussans joined MAN in 1988 as a national fleet sales manager but between 2010 and 2017 worked for sister brand Scania, as regional executive director before returning to MAN as UK truck sales director in 2017.

Thomas Hemmerich, MAN Truck & Bus UK MD, said: “David has had a long and extremely successful career in our industry, and his input to the success of this company has been invaluable. However, after decades of working in the business, David has now decided to take a well-earned break and we all wish him all the very best and thank him for his remarkable contribution.”

Speaking about his departure, Cussans said: “I have been incredibly fortunate to have worked in such a dynamic and colourful industry, and to have met and worked with so many great people. I have always loved the MAN business and product range and I am proud to have played a part in the development of the UK company. Thanks to the focus, commitment and engagement of the whole team and the entire dealer network, we have made huge progress in all areas of our business, and I am sure that the solid foundations will continue to be built upon and lead to further success”

MAN has yet to name a successor to Cussans, but said an announcement will be made shortly.
