Torqata Names Industry Veteran Jill Trotta Vice President of Partnerships and Business Development

HUNTERSVILLE, N.C., Sept. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Torqata announced today that Jill Trotta, a 30-year automotive industry veteran and ASE Certified Technician and Advisor, has joined the company as Vice President of Partnerships & Business Development reporting to CEO Tim Eisenmann.

At Torqata, Jill will lead all partnership and business development efforts. This includes growing the network of shop management system (SMS) vendors that connect to Torqata and expanding strategic partnerships with automotive data providers to increase its market data and service coverage.

Jill brings a wealth of industry experience and relationships in the automotive aftermarket and repair sector to Torqata.
