FleetEV welcomes two new board members

Cardiff-based FleetEV has welcomed Caro Wild and Hannah Williams in advisory positions.

FleetEV is an electric vehicle (EV) services provider that focuses on helping organisations transition to electric vehicles through comprehensive leasing, salary sacrifice, and fleet solutions tailored to diverse client needs.

Hannah Williams, Chief Executive of Alacrity Foundation, has joined the business in a non-executive role to develop strategy and governance through their extended period of growth. She brings a wealth of knowledge and experience that will support FleetEV as they enter the new year and target £1bn in contracts.

On her appointment, Hannah said: “I’m so pleased to have joined FleetEV at such an exciting point in their journey. The growth they have seen this year is incredible, and projections for 2025 are just as impressive.

“Working alongside founder Jarrad Morris has been a delight, as his passion is infectious and is visible through the entire team. I can’t wait to see what this role has in store and what the future holds for FleetEV.”

Climate change specialist Caro Wild has also joined the electric vehicle (EV) provider, from his previous role in Cardiff Council, where he held the post of Cabinet Member for Transport and Climate Change. He will advise FleetEV on policy and political engagement as they cement themselves as market leaders in Wales, leading the EV charge.

He said: “Moving to electric vehicles is the quickest way we as a society can reduce our emissions, and Wales and the UK are already lagging behind other countries. FleetEV is at the forefront of the market and their services are going to help speed this transition up across the country.

“Being a Cardiff-based company who works with local suppliers and businesses to grow the local green economy, their ambitious plans to grow globally will put Wales at the forefront of the green transition, ensuring we help lead the charge against climate change.”

Jarrad Morris, CEO and Founder of FleetEV, said: “We’re so pleased to welcome both Hannah and Caro to the team. Their individual experience will undoubtedly enhance our strategy going into 2025 as we look to further expand and support our customers across the public and private sectors.”

Two new board members for independent broadband organisation

Appointments recognise increasing importance of alt-nets to UK broadband sector

London, UK, 21 February – INCA, the trade association for next generation broadband services, has made two new appointments to its board. Rosalind Singleton, CEO of Spring Fibre and Tim Stranack, Founder and Director of Community Fibre were confirmed in their new roles at the organisation’s recent Annual General Meeting.

The appointments come at a time when the contribution of alt-nets to the development of Gigabit Britain and to the UK economy has never been more important, especially with the government renewing commitments for the provision of access to 5G broadband for the “large majority” of households in last week’s Levelling Up white paper and with the setting of a new target for nationwide 1Gbps broadband to be achieved by 2030.

INCA Chairman Alex Blowers said, “We are delighted to welcome Ros and Tim to the INCA board. Both come with substantial experience in the sector and will play a vital role in what we are sure will be a crucial next 12-24 months in the future of the UK’s fixed telecoms sector”.

In addition to her role at Spring Fibre, Rosalind Singleton is also Chair of the UK5G Advisory Board, a member of the UK Government’s Telecoms Supply Chain Diversification Advisory Council and on Ofcom’s Spectrum Advisory Board. She is also a non-executive director of Alphawave PLC. She has over 30 years of experience in the technology sector and is an active angel investor and mentor for tech businesses with female founders.

Tim Stranack started his career in telecommunications in the 1990’s designing call centre systems first for Europ Assistance and then the Direct Line Group. It was while working for Westminster City Council that he realised the only way to achieve their digital inclusion ambitions was to have better broadband services. This led him to co-found Community Fibre Ltd which has since grown to become London’s largest fibre-only network. Tim has been Chair of INCA’s policy and regulatory special interest group in 2021.
