NEW YORK, April 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DropCar, Inc. (NASDAQ:DCAR) a provider of app-based automotive logistics and mobility services for consumers and the automotive industry, today announced the appointment of Victoria Pasquale as Chief Human Resources Officer.
Pasquale comes to DropCar from Aramark, where she was the Vice President of its New York region managing its higher education division that served 59 universities in 11 states, via a team of 14 district managers.
Before joining Aramark in 2016, Pasquale spent 15 years at Target in expanding executive roles. During 2014-2015, she was Target’s Director of HR and Operations Management for the Northeast region, which included 5,000+ employees. Pasquale earned an MBA from Bellevue University and a B.S. in Marketing from Johnson and Wales University.
Consistent and Effective Hiring is a Key Growth Enabler
Pasquale takes the hiring wheel as DropCar embarks on its national expansion, fueled by its expanding partnerships with premier automotive and real estate enterprises. DropCar’s ability to secure four tier-one corporate B2B contracts is directly linked to its uncompromising focus on the quality of consumer service.
“As a customer-facing, service-oriented business, employees are the lifeblood of our company and a competitive differentiator,” said Spencer Richardson, co-founder and CEO of DropCar. “Victoria’s deep experience in other publicly traded service businesses will ensure we can successfully scale the business as we expand to new markets and exponentially increase the employee base.”
To date, DropCar has signed agreements with Mercedes-Benz, two yet-to-be-named OEMs, and a major car sharing company. In addition, DropCar is experiencing inbound engagement from notable automotive and real estate companies.
Expanding Enterprise Demand for DropCar’s Logistics Services and SaaS Solutions
Major car companies (manufacturers, rental companies, and service providers) are scrambling to adapt to dynamic and disruptive trends in automotive ownership and usage models.
To this end, these companies are increasingly turning to the likes of DropCar, which can offer best-of-breed, and software-based, “last mile” logistics. In addition, DropCar’s turnkey software-as-a-service (SaaS) logistics platform is gaining equal attention to its valet services, as the rapidly emerging “on-demand” marketplace is driving enterprises to jettison non-dynamic legacy solutions.
On the real estate front, DropCar is experiencing accelerated demand from luxury residential operators looking to bundle concierge services, as well as commercial office landlords who need to address expanding employee-per-square-foot density trends, which are taxing fixed parking supplies.
