Vallair has introduced a new governance structure across its maintenance centres. The move aligns with market expectations and customer needs. It also aims to improve management efficiency and support the group’s long-term growth strategy.

Grégoire Lebigot resumes his role as CEO of Vallair Industries and now also leads the Châteauroux MRO centre. He will work closely with François Fermaut, newly appointed Director of Operations. Formerly responsible for the aerostructure centre, Fermaut now oversees the engine business unit and the CHR2 airframe maintenance centre.

At the Montpellier MRO centre, Gilles Fossecave takes on the role of CEO. He is supported by Jean-François Deorocki, Director of Operations. This site-based leadership model increases operational proximity and ensures that each facility is guided by trusted experts with a deep understanding of the MRO landscape.

At Group level, Maxime Gorsse, currently Treasurer and CEO of Vallair Asset Solutions, has been promoted to Chief Financial Officer. This newly created role unites accounting, finance and investor relations. It reflects Vallair’s expanding scale and ambition as the company strengthens its financial and strategic foundations.

These organisational adjustments form part of Vallair’s forward-looking approach. The Group is preparing for key industry shifts, including the rise of composite-intensive aircraft, new technologies, and evolving airline expectations. By acting early, Vallair positions itself to meet tomorrow’s challenges with confidence.
