Autorola Group appoints mobility industry leader Tim Albertsen to Board

Albertsen brings more than 30 years of global experience across mobility, fleet management, automotive, and regulated financial services, with a track record of leading large-scale transformation and cross-border operations.

He most recently led the landmark merger of ALD Automotive and LeasePlan, creating Ayvens, now the world’s largest independent sustainable mobility provider. The combined business generates more than €30 billion in revenue, operates in 42 countries, and manages a balance sheet exceeding €60 billion.

Peter Grøftehauge, CEO and owner of Autorola Group, said Albertsen’s appointment reflects the company’s ambition to lead the next phase of digital mobility.

“Tim Albertsen stands among the most accomplished leaders in the global mobility ecosystem,” he said. “His expertise in scaling digital business models and leading cross-border organisations aligns perfectly with our ambition to shape the next generation of data-driven mobility solutions.”

Eyal Steinitz, Chairman of the Board, added that Albertsen’s industry knowledge and leadership experience would be instrumental as Autorola continues to grow internationally.

“His deep understanding of the mobility sector will add significant value as Autorola continues to strengthen its digital platforms and expand internationally,” he said.

Alongside his executive career, Albertsen currently serves on the supervisory boards of GoMore Group and Leaseurope. He is also a Senior Advisor to Roland Berger and an Operating Partner at venture capital firm Next Gear Ventures.

Albertsen said the company’s capabilities make it well placed for continued growth.

“Autorola Group has built an exceptional platform at the intersection of digital mobility, data intelligence, and global remarketing,” he said. “I look forward to contributing to the Group’s continued growth, supporting its innovation agenda, and helping strengthen its international presence.”
