Bobby Hill is joining ABC Companies as a strategic account executive for its Specialty Vehicles and Technology group. The role will serve the quickly growing demand for electric passenger vehicles, as ABC Companies continues to introduce a range of applications for EV’s in the coach and transit market across the country.

Hill brings his 30 plus years of experience in the coach and EV industry to the rapidly developing SVT group at ABC. He has narrowed this experience into a specialization on electric vehicles and batteries over the last seven years. Hill is joining ABC Companies from his most recent role as VP, sales, with a leading EV battery manufacturer.

Prior to that role, he served as VP, sales, for a global commercial EV manufacturer specializing in passenger transportation. These valuable experiences provided him with a broader perspective, and ultimately motivated him to return to a family-owned company.

“The experience gained working with a multi-national manufacturer provides a unique opportunity to bring my commercial experiences to an organization, which starts with the customer first and then brings the right vehicles solutions to help that customer grow,” said Hill.
