EV charging company Virta has announced the appointment of Ross Basnett as sales executive, with the aim of enhancing its fleet offering.

Basnett is said to bring almost 20 years of experience in fleet and mobility to the role. He began with Somerfield, and has also held senior positions with Fleet Operations, The Miles Consultancy, Arval, and Mobilleo.

Basnett said: “I am delighted to join Virta to build on the work we are doing in the fleet sector. My role is to look at the products and services we are offering, how they fit with the requirements of fleets today and how these can be further developed.

“The UK team has done a lot of work in this area, so I am coming in with a fresh pair of eyes to look at what more we can do to add value for fleets.”
