PAUL KEMP

DAF now has dealer driver trainers based across the country to help hand over new and used vehicles. In this edition we talk to Paul Kemp, the DAF Dealer Driver Trainer and used tuck sales manager, for Adams Morey in Southampton Q: When did you first join Adams Morey and what was your first job there? A: I joined the company in 1989 as a van and truck delivery and collection driver.

Q: What car do you currently drive and, if money was no object, what car would you have? A: I have a company Ford Mondeo, I would like to have a Bentley Continental GT.

Q: What did you want to be when you were at school? A: It was always my dream to be a truck driver like my dad. I went to work with him every school holiday. He worked on containers and then drove for Air Products for more than 25 years, before moving onto drive petrol tankers.

Q: What other responsibilities do you have at Adams Morey? A: I sell used trucks.

Q: When did you take your HGV licence? A: When I was 21. My dad taught me how to drive before that and showed me how to use an Eaton twin splitter gearbox and crash box. I remember he taught me how to reverse using a fully loaded nitrogen trailer. Q: What do you enjoy most about your role? A: Teaching people new things about their truck, even though they might have been driving it for quite a while.

Q: If you weren’t doing this, what would your ideal job be? A: I can’t really think of anything else – this really is my dream job. Paul goes to Eastleigh parkrun every Saturday without fail and runs 5k in the mud most weeks. He is now involved in setting up for each event and the rest of the group are currently encouraging him to take on the role of run director. He’s got five children, four of which are girls who keep him very busy the rest of the time.

Q: Do you have a top tip for a driver getting his new DAF? A: Sit back and relax; let the truck do the work.
