About

Scott Held is the new President of Mercedes-Benz Edmonton West. Originally from Whitehorse, Scott started washing cars when he was 17 years old. “It was a cool job, all my friends were bagging groceries and I got to drive new cars. I eventually got offered a job selling cars. I did that part time while I was going to school and, eventually, decided it was an industry I really enjoyed.” Although he originally never had any intention of being in the car business, Scott ultimately ended up working in the industry in various parts of Canada such as the East Coast in Moncton and briefly in Halifax, as well as in British Columbia and Alberta. He held a series of different jobs in the car business and found his passion. When he finally decided that the car business was going to be his career, his destiny was established.
