My role within Air Charter is to initially liaise with clients and then to identify requirements and source not only suitable but competitive solutions to match their charter specifications. Being brought up in an ‘aviation family’, this route seemed to be the natural choice.

I originally worked for an Oil company and when I saw a vacancy at an Airline I thought it would be an interesting place to work. From starting in Aviation in 2007 I can’t think of another industry that would offer such a varied role, every day is different and there are always new things to learn. So, although not new to the aviation industry, I am the latest addition to Air Charter Travel. Besides keeping the boys in check, my role as a broker is sourcing aircraft and negotiating with operators to ensure our clients get the best possible service, and keep them coming back!
