In this role, Radford will focus on identifying new revenue streams for the Hawarden, Chester-based business as it ramps up, identifying and supporting new clients, as well as exploring synergies within the group.
“I am delighted to join the Aerocare team and be able to help implement the exciting next phase of growth aligned to group strategy and build on the excellent reputation in supporting business aviation customers over two decades,” said Radford.
