Additionally, Peters will take the lead on the UK side of the Arval Mobility Observatory, a global survey that helps fleet operators understand current and future trends.

“Moving forward, I want to ensure our consultancy team is equipped to help with emerging issues whether in the worlds of sustainable fleet operations, micro-mobility, electrification infrastructure or a whole range of new technologies currently under development. It’s a challenging but exciting moment in our industry.”
