Einride Leadership Changes for Growth

Einride, a leading freight technology company, has announced a strategic leadership transition to strengthen its position in the global road freight market. Founder and CEO Robert Falck will become Executive Chairman, focusing on long-term strategy and innovation, while CFO Roozbeh Charli takes over as CEO to lead day-to-day operations and drive growth. Chairman Anders Böös will step down and become an advisor to the company.

Key Highlights:

  • Robert Falck appointed Executive Chairman, focusing on long-term strategy and innovation
  • Roozbeh Charli named CEO, leading day-to-day operations and growth
  • Anders Böös steps down as Chairman, becomes advisor
  • Transition aims to secure Einride’s position as a global freight leader

In his new role as Executive Chairman, Robert Falck will focus on shaping Einride’s long-term trajectory, leading technology innovation, and ensuring the company remains at the forefront of the sustainable freight transition. Falck, who founded Einride in 2016, has been instrumental in building the company into a global leader in freight technology.

Roozbeh Charli, who has served as CFO for the past five years, will take on the role of CEO effective immediately. Charli has played a key role in building Einride’s operational infrastructure and driving commercial momentum across Europe and North America. In his new position, he will lead the team in accelerating the company’s next phase of growth.

Anders Böös, who has served as Chairman of the Board, will step down from his position and transition into an advisory role. Böös has been a key figure in guiding Einride through a critical phase of expansion and governance maturity.

The leadership transition comes as Einride continues to expand its global presence and scale its operations. The company operates one of the largest fleets of heavy-duty electric trucks, servicing Global Fortune 500 companies across the US, Europe, and the UAE.

Einride designs, develops, and deploys freight mobility technologies to accelerate the transition to sustainable transportation. Its platform includes connected electric and autonomous heavy-duty vehicles, charging infrastructure, and an intelligent freight operating system. Founded in 2016, Einride became the world’s first company to operate an autonomous, electric vehicle on a public road in 2019.

Falck said, “Einride started with the simple idea that freight could be done differently, and better. That idea has become a company, a platform, and a global shift in motion. After nearly a decade of building as CEO, it’s time to shift my focus to where I can create the most long-term value.”

Charli commented, “This is more than a handover — it’s a continuation of the vision. I’m proud to take on this role and lead the next phase of execution. With a strong team, a proven platform, and a clear sense of purpose, we’re ready to scale responsibly and deliver lasting value.”

Böös said, “Serving as Chairman during Einride’s transformation from vision to global force has been a privilege. What the company’s founders and entrepreneurs, Robert and Linnéa, together with the entire team have built is rare: a company that leads with both conviction and capability.”

The leadership changes at Einride mark a new chapter in the company’s growth and development. With Falck focusing on long-term strategy and innovation, Charli leading day-to-day operations, and Böös providing advisory support, Einride is well-positioned to continue its mission of accelerating the transition to sustainable freight.
