Naomi Adams is Volvo UK’s new finance chief

Volvo Trucks UK & Ireland has appointed Naomi Adams as its new chief financial officer, based at the company’s head office in Warwick. She joins the business following a 20-year career working in various financial roles with Daimler Group.

Commenting on her appointment, Naomi said:

Though I’ve been fortunate to work across vehicles of all sizes during my career, I have always held a particular interest in HGVs and so the opportunity to join Volvo Trucks was simply too good to turn down. Today is a hugely exciting time to be working in the commercial vehicle sector, not only considering the significant switch we’re seeing towards low and zero carbon mobility solutions but also financially as stakeholders look to rebuild post-pandemic and amidst an ever-evolving economic climate. Helping our customers balance financial stability alongside the shift to electric vehicles is core to my role and I can’t wait to get stuck in and help accelerate our industry’s decarbonisation goals.

On her ambitions for the business’ future, she adds:

Looking to the months and years ahead, ensuring Volvo Trucks has a strong financial footing is more important than ever before. Solidifying that foundation is what will allow our sales teams and dealer network to continue delivering the robust levels of service our customers have come to expect. It is an honour to be a part of that process.
