AerFin has announced the opening of a new office in Singapore, further extending its global footprint. This new location adds to AerFin's existing offices in London Gatwick, Cardiff, Dublin, and Miami, establishing a local presence in some of the world's premier aviation and aerospace hubs.
The Singapore office, located in Raffles Place, will be led by AerFin's newly appointed Senior Vice President (SVP) for Asia Pacific, Paul Ashcroft. With extensive commercial and technical expertise from previous leadership roles at Cathay Pacific, General Electric, and Rolls-Royce. Ashcroft also serves as President of The Royal Aeronautical Society's Singapore branch.
Since 2016, AerFin has managed inventory in the Asia-Pacific region. Given the expected fleet growth and the need for strategic management of fleet retirements and transitions in the region, the company aims to build on its success and better serve its customers in the area.
Paul Ashcroft remarked, “I'm extremely honoured to have this opportunity to launch the new AerFin office in Singapore. Establishing an official presence in-country, supported by local multi-lingual talent and strategic inventory holdings, provides confidence that we can serve the needs of our regional clients better than ever before: being alongside the customer, for the customer.”
Simon Goodson, CEO, added, “This is another exciting milestone for AerFin, following the recent establishment of facilities in Dublin, Miami, and our soon-to-be global headquarters in Newport, South Wales. This development, along with our new brand announcement, signals ongoing growth and expansion. Our focus remains on being local and delivering exceptional value to our customers, our people, and the planet.”
Earlier this month, AerFin launched its new brand, reflecting its core values and commitment to innovative aviation solutions. The refreshed logo and colour scheme emphasise its purpose to “breathe new life into aviation” and its vision to be the most trusted partner in the aviation aftermarket.
