He understands the complexity, has vast experience in developing, nurturing and growing a global dealer network, and has proven business and leadership skills.

‘Rik has held a variety of senior roles within JCB, developed new markets and products on a global basis, all ultimately focused on serving the customer. We look forward to him bringing that same customer focus and experience to Terex Finlay.’
