JET 8 Appoints Alfred Wang as Senior Vice President
JET 8, a DGA Group company, continues to grow its leadership team with the appointment of Alfred Wang as Senior Vice President. Wang arrives during the company’s fast-growth phase and expansion in the Greater China region, where he will oversee the company’s market growth and strategic operations in the region.
Based in Beijing, Wang brings a wealth of business-to-customer and business-to-business expertise and experience, most recently having served as Director of Aviation Finance for Industrial Bank Financial Leasing Co. Ltd. As an industry veteran with a stellar track record in aviation, Wang’s impressive former roles include having served as Sales Director for Bombardier and Sales Director for GE Aviation, helping MNC’s drive multi-billion deals during times of growth and revitalization.
"We are proud to have Alfred Wang join our leadership team to continue our momentum as we keep expanding JET 8 footprint in Greater China. Alfred’s proven track record in private aviation coupled to his deep technical experience make him a perfect fit for JET 8. Alfred's focus on delivering excellence will further strengthen the relationship with our customers, and help scale our business in the region," said Diana Chou, co-founder of JET 8.
“The world today is very different than it was a mere two years ago. We are scaling up our operations in Greater China to respond to evolving market needs – the Chinese market remains grossly underserved when it comes to professional, independent advice and we are growing our team to further take this niche,” adds Adrien Chazottes, co-founder of JET 8. “Whether our client need to sell their aircraft to direct buyers and reap the benefits of the current market upside, or whether they need our expertise to help them buy a pre-owned or negotiate a new airplane with a manufacturer, we are fully scaled to provide them with a smooth and impeccable solution. Adding quality people in China also helps our international clients who are increasingly scouting the Chinese market for ‘off-market’ acquisitions; we count on Alfred’s expertise here as well to further improve our value offering.”
“Having worked in the aviation industry for more than 20 years, I am deeply committed to the industry. Witnessing JET 8 strong development over the past years, I am very excited to join a team devoted to providing world-class advisory services to customers in Greater China. JET 8 offers a very unique approach to Chinese customers willing to acquire or dispose of an aircraft and I am eager to add value to the process. With the current market evolutions, another area of focus will be to keep facilitate transactions involving aircraft on the Chinese registry; in this respect I look forward to working with industry stakeholders and promote a sustainable and healthy growth of the market,” said Alfred Wang, Senior Vice President of JET 8.
