Aviation data and market intelligence firm JetNet today announced the expansion of its executive and leadership teams, appointing Josh Baird as COO, Katherine Minty as CFO, Eric Foss as senior v-p of engineering, and Greg Kimball as senior v-p of product. It also tapped Craig Smith and Julie Mandello for the newly created positions of v-p of program management and controller, respectively.
“When I joined JetNet a year ago, I believed the company had a huge opportunity to accelerate its growth by bringing more data and intelligence to the aviation market,” said company CEO Derek Swaim. “I am proud of the talented team who has helped us harness that opportunity to create value for our customers and the company. As we embark on a new phase of growth, I am excited to have the expertise and experience of the new additions to our leadership team.”
With the exception of Minty, who was promoted from v-p of finance at JetNet, these additions are new hires mostly from outside of the aviation industry. Baird previously served as COO and CFO at vacation rental firm RedAwning; Foss most recently was v-p of software development at learning management system provider Absorb Software but previously was IT director at WestJet airlines; Kimball comes from customer data firm Validity; Smith was v-p of operations at Absorb Software; and Mandello was controller at billing compliance outfit MDaudit.
The new leadership team members join an existing team of experienced business aviation professionals, including Jason Lorraine, who was recently promoted to assistant v-p of strategic solutions and product sales, and David Labrecque, who was recently promoted to assistant v-p of research.
