Mr Gatt Baldacchino, who previously led the company’s sales and marketing function, will assume responsibility for overseeing the local car rental and lease operations.

Commenting on his new role, Mr Gatt Baldacchino said: “I am looking forward to working closely with our dedicated operations and development teams to help refine and explore new ideas surrounding mobility and how we interact with our customers.”

He added that United Garage’s “enduring partnership” with Hertz holds a “rich legacy in local car rental and leasing”. The company is determined to “keep pushing the boundaries of mobility”, he continued.

Prior to his time at Hertz Malta, Mr Gatt Baldacchino also had experiences working at Deloitte Malta and IELS Malta. He holds a Master’s degree in International Marketing from University of Sussex and a Bachelor of Commerce in Marketing, Banking and Finance from University of Malta.
