Fastned appoints Françoise Poggi as new COO
European fast-charging company Fastned has made the decision to expand its leadership team with a new COO. The company explains that this was done to accompany the scaling that the charging provider plans for its network across Europe. However, she will not start immediately, as Fastned writes: “Her official appointment as a member of the Fastned Management Board is expected in the second half of 2024, during an extraordinary Shareholder Meeting that will be called.”
As Fastned wrote in its press release, “Françoise has been part of setting up and scaling a supply chain across Europe while eliminating bottlenecks to accelerate growth” during her time at Tesla. This expertise is now to be aimed at overseeing and aligning “the activities of the construction management, station design, and station operations departments. Her background in supply chain will be of tremendous value for Fastned to scale our operating capabilities further across geographies.”
“I have a career of over 20 years in operations and supply chain, driving large-scale transformations, and spent the last 7 years at Tesla, where I supported the growth of the EMEA supply chain for charging, energy infrastructure, and vehicle aftersales,” said the new hire Françoise Poggi, adding: “I am bringing to Fastned the expertise in scaling at fast pace, designing and growing nimble organisations that can succeed in highly volatile environments.”
