Gap Finders: Onto co-founder Rob Jolly

Available for over a year

This week's Gap Finders interview is with Rob Jolly, the co-founder of Onto, an electric vehicle subscription service. Offering users a monthly package that includes charging and insurance, Onto now has more than 7,000 cars across the UK, and 160 staff based in Warwick. We hear how Rob - with the help of his mum Kim - got the business off the ground, taking a very hands-on role in the early days with a small fleet of taxis in Birmingham. Navigating the pandemic, and now the cost of living squeeze, have presented fresh challenges for the five-year-old business, and Rob talks about the ups and downs of growing Onto into the nationwide app-based service it is today.
