I’m Martin, the CEO and Co-Founder of DigiHaul. It breaks my heart to see so many trucks running empty so I wanted to create a transport community that supports each other to reduce their carbon footprint.
That’s why I set up DigiHaul, to tackle the wider issue of empty road miles. It’s a pretty simple business plan, share data, share fleet and build back loads.
The team at DigiHaul and I, are working hard to change mindsets and drive down carbon, whilst digitalising an industry that’s stuck in the 1990’s!
With Oasis making a comeback, we can definitely “maybe” generate some positive nostalgia for business leaders and transport operators to make a positive change for the benefit of our future generations.
Hello, I’m Matt Window, the Chief Financial Officer at DigiHaul. I joined the team four years ago to help navigate the financial complexities of our growth agenda.
My role here involves managing everything from cash flow and budgeting to forecasting and commercial innovation. Like any start up, every financial decision is critical, and I’m focused on ensuring we have the resources and controls we need to scale sustainably while staying agile with the support of my fantastic team. My background is underpinned by over 20 years of supply chain experience in sectors such as automative, retail, public sector and aviation. What excites me the most about my role here is the opportunity to partner closely with our team to turn big ideas into reality and improve profitability.
When I’m not crunching numbers, I’m busy playing Dad for my two boys with some time for travel and friends in between. I’m left-handed (special!) and my favourite movie is Bambi…I mean, Reservoir Dogs!
As the CIO for DigiHaul, I’m responsible for both our product roadmap and our day to day IT operations – if it has a plug on it, the IT team are here to save the day! It also includes customer integrations and new feature development for key topics such as information security and compliance.
Having a background in business-facing IT roles helps solve the problems of today and of tomorrow – alongside having a high-performing team of technology experts, which I’m very proud to lead.
Outside of work, my activities are all centred around family – bike rides, forest walks, and camping being our favourite Team Parkin activities. I’m also an amateur musician, having tried desperately to re-live my youth by forming a Dad Band a few years ago. There aren’t any number-one hits on the horizon just yet, but watch this space…
