MEMBER PROFILE Name: John Thomson Company: John Thomson Construction
Member number: 4293 Member since: 19/02/2018
Based on the picturesque Isle of Arran, John Thomson is a member of the Operator’s Club and the Plant Operations Manager for John Thomson Construction. As a key contributor to this 67 year old family business, John leads a team of plant operators on a variety of tasks including: fulfilling forestry contracts, quarrying, crushing, road maintenance and new road construction.
John remarks that; “Forestry work is very demanding on equipment, and the ground conditions on the island are among the most challenging you will find anywhere in the country, so it is essential that our equipment is up to it. Operating on an Island, reliability and fuel economy is as important as performance.” In order to meet these challenges, going forward, John proudly informs us that his firm has committed to running a purely Volvo fleet of equipment.
John first become aware of the Operator’s Club when reading The Voice Magazine. He was interested in the competitions that the club regularly hosts, and thought that joining the Operator’s Club would be a great way to connect with like-minded people.
What John most enjoys about being a member of the Operators Club is interacting with other members of the club as well as being able to ask for their opinions on various pieces of Volvo equipment. John also enjoys keeping up-to-date with the latest Volvo news.
