Rivian Chief People Officer Helen Russell has left the electric vehicle (EV) maker after spending nearly five years at the company.
On LinkedIn, Russell announced that she has joined HubSpot, a leading customer relationship management (CRM) platform, in the equivalent role — as shared by Chris Hilbert, a Rivian owner on X.
During her tenure at the EV maker, the company grew from fewer than 1,000 people to over 10,000 within two years, marking significant expansion and success in the industry.
In addition to her recent positions, Russell’s career includes her role as Chief Human Resources Officer at Sonos, Inc. for over two years.
Russell’s educational background includes an Executive Development Programme focused on Driving Cultural Change from Harvard Business School and a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Liverpool.
Earlier this week, CEO RJ Scaringe has filed a Form 144 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proposing the sale of 71,429 shares of common stock.
Over the past three months, Scaringe has filed notices for two prior proposed sales of Rivian common stock, each involving 71,429 shares. According to the form filed on Monday, gross proceeds from the sale amount up to $1.62 million.
Last Friday, the company announced last Friday its Chief Accounting Officer Jeffrey Baker has resigned to pursue another career opportunity.
The resignation will take effect later this month, on July 27, as Baker continues in his current role to ensure a smooth transition.
Earlier in the week, the German media outlet Handelsblatt reported that Rivian and Volkswagen were in discussions to extend their recently announced software partnership into hardware collaboration and joint production.
However, when contacted by Reuters, the US-based electric vehicle (EV) maker Rivian stated that it has no plans to produce vehicles with Volkswagen Group.
Volkswagen Group said recently it was set to invest up to $5 billion in the US-based electric vehicle maker Rivian to leverage its technology and form a joint venture.
