Air Partner has appointed Alexander Katsouris as business development manager in its freight division.

Katsouris will be based at Air Partner’s UK headquarters at London’s Gatwick Airport and he will report directly to director of freight, Mike Hill.

He has worked in Mexico for the past seven years for Europartners where he worked his way up to become the automotive logistics division director, and helped make the time critical services a success.

Air Partner says Katsouris’ experience in these sectors will be invaluable in his new role.

Katsouris says: “Air Partner already has a great reputation in the automotive sector but there are still opportunities out there, and I can’t wait to start helping the team to capitalise on these.”

Hill says: “We are thrilled to welcome Alexander to the team; his international experience will be invaluable as we look to continue growing our customer base across Europe and beyond.”

“Time critical and automotive are both key areas of focus for us, so Alex’s expertise and relationships in these areas will be a real asset as we work towards our strategic objectives.”
