Leading truck manufacturer MAN Truck & Bus UK has appointed a new salesman to its team in Northern Ireland.

MAN Truck & Bus is the largest subsidiary of the MAN corporation based in Munich, Germany. The business has a revenue of around €9 billion a year (2015) and a staff of 35,500 people. The subsidiary is specialised in producing trucks, buses and diesel engines.

Jordan Willis, 31, has joined the sales team lead by Brian Beattie and will cover Co Antrim and part of Co Londonderry/ Derry. The areas were previously covered by his colleague Mark Lennox, who will now be responsible for Armagh, Fermanagh and Tyrone.

At the still young age of 31, this is Jordan Willies first introduction to the into the commercial sales world and he is very keen to succeed in it.

Brian, Man area sales manager, explains: “The addition of Jordan to the team strengthens MAN’s presence and ability to cope with customer enquiries for the product in Northern Ireland.”

Jordan, who has already worked with finance and cars previously, said: “This opportunity arose with MAN and it was too good an opportunity to miss. It seems like a very good company to work for, and there are a lot of people who have long service, which means something.”

Outside of work, Jordan enjoys being outdoors and walking with his family.
