Brisbane-founded Tritium’s new chief operating officer Glen Casey will focus on company-wide operational execution, global supply and product distribution and customer support services as Tritium continues its global expansion.
The global developer and manufacturer of direct current (DC) EV fast chargers says Casey has more than 20 years executive experience across automotive, energy and engineering manufacturing and will take up his new role after serving as Tritium’s global operations interim director since May 2021.
“Tritium has a technology advantage with world-leading DC fast-chargers and, in this challenged supply chain environment, we require an experienced operations leader with a proven track record who can successfully navigate manufacturing complexity and enable the company to meet strong market demand,” says Tritium chief executive Jane Hunter.
“With Glen on board, we gain a leader who has been with the company for nearly a year and in that time hit production records. Glen has the knowledge and real-world experience to help Tritium globally scale our manufacturing operations and continue to optimise and mature those processes.”
Casey holds a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from Swinburne University of Technology and says he’s thrilled to take up his new role.
“I believe the future of transportation is electric, and Tritium has uniquely positioned itself for sustainable global expansion and ascendancy.”
Last month, Tritium joined US president Joe Biden at the White House to announce the company’s new US manufacturing facility in Lebanon, Tennessee, expected to employ more than 500 people over the next five years and produce more than 10,000 DC fast charger units annually and 30,000 units annually at peak capacity.
