CargoLogicAir has made new appointments to its executive and management teams as it prepares to take delivery of its fourth Boeing 747-400ERF in October.

Frank de Jong joins as chief operations officer, having previously worked as director of product development at CargoLogicManagement and holding executive roles with Martinair.

He will report to the chief executive officer of CargoLogicAir, David Kerr and take responsibility for flight, ground and technical operations.

Three other appointments have been made with Freddie Overton joining from IAG Cargo to take up the role of regional director for Europe and the Americas; Sean Pettit joining as head of financial control; and Sarah Owen being promoted to the role of head of the operations control centre.

Kerr comments: “These key appointments and our next aircraft delivery will keep us on track with our five- year plan and allow us to expand our capabilities in support of the UK’s key exporting and importing industries.

“They will also enhance our ability to play a lead role alongside our network of international cargo airline partners in serving the requirements of key global customers and strategic industry partners.”
