Shutl makes two key management appointments as it looks to expand in the US

Shutl, the same-day and same-hour delivery platform, has appointed two technology and logistics experts to its management team in advance of a launch with major retailers across the US.

Sean Cornwell, the former managing director of online dating site eHarmony’s international businesses, has been appointed as Shutl’s chief operating officer. Prior to eHarmony, Cornwell was group product marketing manager EMEA at Google where he led product marketing for monetization products across Europe.

Cornwell has also founded the B2B tech platform for writers DM Europe and climate change charity EarthFireIce, and is on the board of venture-backed LoveHomeSwap.com, a home exchange business.

At Shutl, Cornwell will support UK and US growth, as well as plan for further international markets.

In a second appointment, Mike Fiorito will become head of North America operations where he will be responsible for growing Shutl’s US courier network.

Fiorito is a logistics industry veteran with 33 years of experience building market leaders in same-day, point-to-point, B2B, and B2C final mile delivery. Most recently, he built Urban Express (now UX Logistics) from startup to New York’s largest independent courier business. Fiorito founded his first courier company Early Bird Delivery Systems when he was 18 and the business went public in 1997 as part of Dispatch Management Services Inc.

Commenting on the appointments Tom Allason, Shutl founder and chief executive, said: “We are delighted for Sean and Mike to join Shutl – they bring a wealth of experience developing and scaling consumer-internet and courier businesses across US and globe. I am confident they will help propel the company new levels of growth and success both here in the US and across the world.”
