Scania is building its team in New Zealand with the addition of Adrian Bunyan, Andrew Hodgkinson, and Garry Leitch.

Bunyan comes with an extensive background in automotive business and retail development. 

Prior to joining Scania New Zealand, Bunyan worked for Polaris Industries, and within the leasing, financing, sales and the importation and export of vehicles. 

He is one of three dealer development managers who support the Scania dealer network and workshops. This is a key role within the company to deliver Scania‘s core values of customer first, respect for the individual, elimination of waste, determination, team spirit and integrity – the guiding principles that flow through all facets of the Scania business.

Hodgkinson started his career in customer and managerial roles within the UK‘s automotive industry.

Moving to New Zealand some 13 years ago, he joined CablePrice NZ and has worked as branch operations manager in Christchurch for the past three years. 

Hodgkinson‘s role in Scania New Zealand is to work closely with the service and parts network across the South Island and deliver on the company‘s high standards of service. 

Hodgkinson says a key reason for joining Scania New Zealand was the opportunity to play a part in a global company and to build recognition of the Scania brand and business in New Zealand.

Leitch joins Scania New Zealand following a three-year absence from the heavy transport industry during which time he established two businesses on the Kapiti Coast.

Prior to joining Scania New Zealand, he had various management sales roles with CablePrice NZ. He brings with him more than 17 years‘ experience in the trucking industry, holding managerial roles within the aftersales parts and services sector.
