Helicopter leasing company Waypoint Leasing announced this week that it is opening offices in Brisbane, Australia, and Cape Town, South Africa, to cover the Australian and Africa/Middle Eastern regions, respectively. “These are important, growing markets and we are further expanding our global reach to better serve our customers,” said Waypoint senior vice president of sales and relationship management Clark McGinn.
The Australian branch will open in April under the leadership of vice president of sales and relationship management Chris Wakefield. Waypoint has already delivered five helicopters to several operators in this region. Wakefield, who joined Waypoint in January and previously worked at CHC Helicopter’s aviation finance department, said there are “strong opportunities” to provide customized leasing for operators in Australia.
Waypoint’s Africa/Middle East office will open in the second quarter led by director of sales and relationship management Con Barber. The company currently has 12 aircraft leased to operators in Africa.
