Volta Inc. (NYSE: VLTA) announced late last week that Brandt Hastings, Chief Revenue Officer at Volta, has been appointed interim Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately.
At the end of March Founder and CEO Scott Mercer will step down from his role of Chairman and CEO and Co-Founder and President Chris Wendel resigned from the company and the board.
At that time, the company named independent directors Kathy Savitt and Vince Cubbage as Co-Chairs of the Board.
Vince Cubbage, Co-Chair of the Board told us “Brandt has been instrumental in building upon Volta’s success and has an impressive track record in delivering growth for companies and their stakeholders. We have seen Brandt in action first hand and have the utmost confidence that his talents and leadership skills will drive results and accelerate Volta’s business in this interim role”.
We understand that the Board has commenced a formal search for a permanent CEO. Brandt will retain his title as Volta’s CRO while the search is ongoing.
