Hemmerich (pictured) is currently MD of MAN’s Austrian business and has worked for the organisation since 2003, including chief executive of the German operation and regional head of sales for Africa.
Hemmerich says he will relish the challenge: “It is a fantastic opportunity to lead MAN Truck & Bus UK. There is huge potential here and I know I will be building on a strong platform.
“The launch of the van, the MAN TGE, will bring more to our range and it is a very exciting time to be joining the company.”
Simon Elliott, outgoing managing director, added: “I am delighted to be handing over to Thomas and I know he will bring his experience and expertise to bear here in the UK. I wish him and the whole team at MAN Truck & Bus UK continued success.”
