As Commercial Director, Richard will focus on managing the commercial organisation at home and abroad, among other things with the aim of securing and improving long-term customer satisfaction. In doing so, he will be in close contact with VDL Bus & Coach's national sales organisations, which are now located in 13 countries. 

In his last position as Sales Director for a Swiss listed organisation, he was responsible for all commercial activities there for about 10 years. As a result, he brings a lot of experience as a commercial executive to his new role at VDL Bus & Coach. 

Richard van den Dungen: "I am really looking forward to making a difference in the world of mobility together with customers, new colleagues and partners. VDL Bus & Coach is a great company with great products and has a strong market position. It is my honour to further expand and strengthen this position through our commercial organisation.”
