Netherlands – In an attempt to steer the ship, embattled electric bus manufacturer, Ebusco Holding NV, based in Deurne, has appointed experienced financier, Jan Piet Valk to take over from Jurjen Jongma as interim Chief Financial Officer (CFO) with immediate effect. The Dutchman will work closely with new CEO Christian Schreyer and CCO Erland Morelissen as the executive management team implements the company’s turnaround strategy to address financial challenges and streamline its operations. The company’s Board of Directors also announced that it is set to sell 9.3% of Ebusco to Chinese battery manufacturer Gotion High-tech Co Ltd in an attempt to raise much-needed operating capital.
