Vincent brings with him more than 20 years of international aviation and airline experience, gained across organisations including Australia’s Jetstar Airways and VivaAerobus in Mexico.  He has also worked as a consultant and advisor to global strategy consulting firm Bain & Company.

With an extensive aviation network around the globe, he specialises in start-ups and business transformation, bringing new ideas and approaches and clear strategies that have increased revenue growth and driven innovation. 

Vincent holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Melbourne and an MBA from Melbourne Business School and is a fluent Spanish speaker.

He will be relocating to Yorkshire with his wife and four children, who were all born in different countries around the globe.

We look forward to introducing Vincent to the team here at Leeds Bradford Airport.
