This week we appointed Bart Welten as our new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), and Floris van de Klashorst as Chief Transformation Officer.
Prior to joining Lightyear, Welten held CFO positions at Avantium NV, Centrient Pharmaceuticals, Kiadis Pharma and DSM. Van de Klashorst previously held senior leadership positions at Volkswagen Group, Renault Nissan Alliance, Here Technologies and Nokia and 6 years of experience in board positions at a number of companies in the field of mobility and technology.
"We are thrilled to welcome Bart and Floris to our team as our new CFO and CTFO," said our CEO Lex Hoefsloot, "Bart’s funding experience and Floris’ focus on operational excellence, together with their proven leadership skills, will be invaluable to Lightyear as we continue to increase our investability and accelerate our mission towards clean mobility."
