Thominet began his career with ECS Group in 1995 as Commercial Manager. Rising through the ranks, he became Chief Operating Officer in 2011 and was later named Executive Chairman. Under his stewardship, ECS Group has grown to become the world’s largest GSSA, renowned for its operational excellence and forward-thinking strategies. His deep expertise and strategic vision will be instrumental as TIACA works to address the evolving needs of the air cargo sector.

We look forward to working with him and we are sure he will have plenty to contribute,” said Steven Polmans, TIACA Chairman.
