Zigup has appointed Rachel Coulson as its new chief financial officer (CFO).

Coulson is currently deputy CFO at Pearson PLC where she has held several senior finance roles in the UK and US since 2014.

Her appointment to car rental company Zigup follows the resignation in October 2024 of Philip Vincent, who will leave his role as CFO and a director of the firm on 28 March 2025.

Zigup said that Coulson will join the business and board of directors no later than 18 August 2025, following the completion of her current notice period. Prior to her arrival, Zigup’s current UK&I finance director, Richard Clay, will step in as interim CFO.

“I am looking forward to welcoming Rachel to the board and working with her as we continue to evolve the business through our three strategic pillars of enable, deliver and grow,” Zigup CEO, Martin Ward, said.

“Rachel’s experience of driving international business growth and digital transformation is particularly relevant and will bring valuable experience to the Executive team. I would also like to thank Philip for his dedication and support over the past six years and wish him the very best for the future.”

Coulson added: “I am delighted to be joining Zigup as CFO. The group has developed a leading integrated mobility platform and is at an exciting point in the delivery of its strategy. I am looking forward to working with the Zigup team to help shape and execute against the next phase of the journey.”
