Future Mobility

Decarbonising transport takes more than new technology, it takes visionary teams.

Brightsmith builds the leadership teams driving the global shift to cleaner, smarter transport systems. From electric vehicles and charging infrastructure to Mobility as a Service (MaaS), autonomous vehicles, and sustainable aviation and maritime solutions, we partner with innovators shaping the future of mobility. Through specialist future mobility recruitment and cleantech executive search, we connect organisations with leaders redefining how people and goods move in a net zero world.

As future mobility scales from pilot projects to mainstream adoption, Brightsmith delivers tailored talent strategies aligned to your ambition and growth stage. We understand sector complexity: the fast-paced, user-driven nature of EVs and MaaS, the integration demands of AVs, the grid and permitting challenges affecting charging infrastructure, and the cross-border timelines required to decarbonise aviation, shipping, and heavy transport. Our inclusive cleantech recruitment approach ensures resilient leadership for long-term impact.

Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles have reached mainstream adoption, but scaling supply chains, software systems, and user platforms remains a major challenge. Through specialist future mobility recruitment, Brightsmith supports OEMs, start-ups, and fleet operators in hiring experts for battery integration, vehicle platforms, embedded software, and fleet operations. We deliver leaders who balance innovation with compliance under demanding schedules.

Charging Infrastructure

The rollout of charging infrastructure is slowed by grid connections, permitting, and funding gaps. Brightsmith delivers clean technology executive search for leaders who navigate technical complexity, land development, and utility partnerships. High demand exists for high-voltage installers, project managers, and strategists specialising in interoperability, demand response, and bidirectional charging, essential for scaling sustainable transport networks.

Mobility as a Service

MaaS is transforming urban transport through integrated apps, payments, and real-time data. Scaling across regions demands executives with expertise in digital ecosystems, multimodal logistics, and public-private partnerships. Brightsmith’s cleantech recruitment approach delivers commercial leaders, platform architects, and specialists in user experience, behavioural data, and transport economics, connecting innovators with talent to shape smarter, cleaner cities.

Autonomous Vehicles

Autonomous vehicle technology is advancing quickly, but large-scale deployment requires leaders who bridge engineering, regulation, and systems integration. Brightsmith delivers future mobility executive search across AI/ML, AV safety engineering, simulation, and regulatory strategy. We connect organisations with specialists capable of guiding pilots, achieving approvals, and scaling programmes globally, ensuring commercial success in autonomous transport innovation.

Aviation & Maritime

Decarbonising heavy transport requires sustainable aviation fuels, electrification, and hybridisation, yet technical, regulatory, and investment barriers remain. Brightsmith provides clean technology executive search for leaders in SAF development, vessel retrofits, and port electrification. Our network delivers talent skilled in policy, stakeholder management, and long-term investment modelling, enabling innovation across global aviation and maritime infrastructure.
