Australian cross-channel media and EV charging network, JOLT, has appointed Donna Tauro as its new Group Sales Manager.

Tauro, who will be based in JOLT's Sydney office, will manage sales across the company's New South Wales and Queensland client base, reporting to JOLT Sales Director (NSW and QLD), Hannah Pritchard.

Tauro brings over 17 years of experience in media sales and management to her new role. She has previously held senior leadership roles at oOh! and more recently served as an Investment Director at Dentsu media agency Carat. Her appointment comes at a time when JOLT is undergoing significant expansion, with plans to roll out 130 additional new digital advertising screens across Sydney, funded by the NSW Government.

"JOLT is thrilled to announce Donna’s arrival to our Sydney sales team. Having previously worked with Donna, I’ve witnessed firsthand her remarkable strategic vision and deep industry expertise. Her contributions will be invaluable as we continue to innovate and disrupt the out-of-home landscape with JOLT’s unique and fast-scaling proposition in the market. Donna brings a wealth of diverse knowledge to JOLT, which will elevate our service offerings and drive a more customer-fixated approach across NSW. I’m truly delighted to welcome her on board," said JOLT Sales Director (NSW & QLD), Hannah Pritchard.

In addition to its domestic expansion, JOLT has also made major agreements with TELUS for the rollout of 5,000 EV chargers across Canada and expanded its UK and New Zealand EV network. The company has also added video and rich media ads to its suite of mobile advertising products.

"I am excited to join JOLT during an exceptional period of growth for the company. I look forward to collaborating with their talented team and continuing to build on JOLT’s out-of-home success by driving meaningful client outcomes," said Tauro.

JOLT is Australia’s first network of free, fast electric vehicle fast charging stations and sustainable digital out-of-home and in-app advertising network. The company is the first media company to generate transport-related carbon credits for businesses, a model verified by United Nations Sustainable Development (UNSD).
