Ivan Bozich has been named as the new head of development for MyTrucking.

The newly created role signals the company’s commitment to continuous investment in technology excellence.

In taking on the leadership role, Bozich will be responsible for ensuring MyTrucking’s reputation for simple but innovative software.

“I’m always proud to see the product we imagined seven years ago on the screens of essential businesses around the country,” said MyTrucking founder and managing director, Sam Orsborn.

“What our transporters do is vital, so it’s important to me that our product serves them well.

“Historically we’ve been known for our awesome customer service and support – this new role shows we’re committed to being top of the game technically, too.”

Bozich comes to MyTrucking with more than 35 years of experience in business and software management, most recently as general manager applications at Datacom, and chief operating officer at Simpl Health, both in New Zealand.

While his last role saw him managing a team of 115, he’s got his eyes wide open about the challenges and opportunities that come from working in a smaller team with big ambitions.

“MyTrucking’s development team are passionate and hugely capable – they’ve built a solid product that thousands of people use on a daily basis,” Bozich said.

“I’m most looking forward to being back at the coalface of customer feedback, seeing how what we build directly affects our customers – and also some of the exciting innovations that are on the drawing board.”
