Espinal will be tasked with driving growth across the region, as well as working with the global team to develop and implement an effective sales strategy.

He commented: “Commercial EV adoption is accelerating, but to make this transition viable, it must be supported by intelligent management technology that integrates vehicles, charging infrastructure, schedules and power supply.

“I am excited about my new position at ZeroMission and the journey the company is on. This role allows me to leverage my knowledge and experience to support the complex process of fleet decarbonisation and promote sustainable business practices.”

Espinal will draw on over 12 years’ experience in the electric vehicle sector – working for or in partnership with OEMs, charging manufacturers and other technology specialists – to target direct and channel sales growth. Most recently, he was director of business development & strategic partnerships, e-Mobility, for Flash Parking, spearheading the establishment of new construction opportunities for EV charging as well as fostering strategic fleet and real estate partnerships.

He previously held a number of sales and consultancy roles at TurnTide Technologies, ChargePoint and Urban Science. As strategic sales director of ChargePoint’s Automotive Group, he was responsible for overseeing all automotive OEM relationships in North America and elevating the company’s presence within this key market sector.

Leah O’Dwyer, CEO of ZeroMission, commented: “Eduardo will become an important part of our global business development team, working closely with our new director of sales Europe, Brenda Shanahan, to ensure we have the processes and strategy in place to support our growth trajectory.”
