America’s Auto Auction made its second acquisition of the week with the latest one being on the executive front.

After revealing that it purchased Albany Auto Auction, the company on Wednesday announced the appointment of Zach Hallowell as executive vice president of transformation and innovation.

America’s Auto Auction said this is a newly expanded role that strengthens the company’s continued investment in technology, growth, and digital strategy.

Management highlighted that Hallowell joins America’s at a pivotal time as the company continues to expand its national footprint while maintaining a strong, service-driven culture.

In his new role, he will lead enterprise-wide digital initiatives and accelerate the adoption of advanced AI technologies, ensuring America’s can remain viable in an evolving automotive wholesale landscape.

“I’ve admired the leadership of America’s for a long time,” Hallowell said in a news release. “I feel aligned with the company’s strong values of accountability, transparency, and a true bias for action. I’m excited to join the America’s team and help lead the next stage of the company’s evolution.”

Hallowell brings more than two decades of experience in automotive and digital marketplaces, most recently serving as CEO of CarOffer, a CarGurus subsidiary.

Earlier in his career, Hallowell held leadership roles at Manheim, OPENLANE, and ADESA, where he helped advance digital wholesale solutions and drive growth across physical and digital marketplaces.

“We are very excited to have Zach aboard,” said Chuck Tapp, CEO of America’s Auto Auction. “Developing, retaining and attracting top leaders is a cornerstone to our historic success and our vision for the future. Zach complements our team in a variety of essential ways, and we are delighted to welcome Zach to the America’s team.”
