Roger Cross

Peter Shelton, general manager Tadano Oceania said: “Having Roger Cross on the Tadano team is a great coup. He is a strong addition to our team. He brings unparalleled knowledge and experience that will be of significant benefit to our customers.”

Cross added: "This is the ideal time to make the change to Tadano. Market conditions have changed markedly through 2013 and we now face challenging times, but not without opportunities. I know that Tadano is a great brand. It is a wonderful product and there is an excellent customer base for us to support and build upon."

"This is longer term work and the demand for cranes and lifting equipment is tailored to Tadano's range of all terrain, rough terrain and truck cranes. We are well positioned to take advantage of the new market conditions."
