The car-sharing company from the maker of Jeep SUVs and Ram pickup trucks is looking to grow its workforce by 40%, including hires in the United States.
Stellantis NV's Free2move on Monday said it is adding 100 people to its 250-person team in Madrid, Paris and the U.S. in efforts to expand its app that offers users vehicles available for rent from minute-by-minute to several months at a time with parking, insurance and maintenance covered. It also is a data provider for fleet customers.
In its expansion, the company has highlighted vehicle delays resulting from the global semiconductor shortage as a reason for the increasing demand for short-term car rentals. Despite the pandemic, Free2move achieved sustainability in 2020, the company said last year.
