EV Charging Executive Search

EV Charging Executive Search

Board and C-suite hires for EV charging operators scaling networks across the US.

The brief, honestly

EV charging leadership hires stall when the search starts too wide. A CFO who can raise growth capital, a VP of Construction who has mobilized a federal rollout, an MD who has scaled a startup network: those people rarely answer adverts.

EV Charging Executive Search is all we place here: the VP, C-suite and board briefs that decide whether a network scales or stalls. One consultant, eight years in EV charging.

Seniority we cover

From field technician to Head of Operations.

Built around your brief — the role, the team, and what good actually looks like.

Market mapping

Map the market first

How we search this discipline

Mapped by name, qualified against the brief.

Tell us the seat, the site and the deadline behind it.

Tighten the brief

We pin down the P&L, the team and what a strong first twelve months looks like. Not a job spec.

We map who is available now: charge point operators, installers, EVSE engineers already contracting.

Map the pool

We map leaders across CPOs, EVSE OEMs and energy, including the ones running teams and not job-hunting.

We qualify against the technical brief before submission, so the shortlist can start Monday.

Shortlist

A short list, qualified on P&L record and fit before anyone reaches you. It's what holds interview rates at 66%.

Roles we place

Titles we fill on the sales desk.

VP of Commercial

Chief Operating Officer

VP of Hardware Engineering

Head of Charging Networks

Managing Director

Questions firms ask

Hiring EV charging leaders, answered.

How quickly will I see candidates?

+

For a defined executive brief (CFO, VP of Sales, MD) expect a calibrated shortlist in two to three weeks.

Retained or interim?

+

Both. An interim leader can hold the P&L while we run the permanent search.

What if the role is hard to fill?

+

That's the job. We go direct to EV charging leaders running P&Ls elsewhere who aren't reading adverts.
