“The aviation industry is unique and it takes someone with an entrepreneurial spirit coupled with a strong financial acumen to be successful, especially in the Maintenance and Repair Organization (MRO) environment,” said Tony Bailey, President & COO. “We have been searching for that right individual and John fits our needs perfectly. His education and experience as a CPA and Senior Auditor for Deloitte give him accounting clarity coupled with the technical knowledge the position requires, and his experience as a franchise owner gives him the innovative insight we need to help us to continue our growth plan. He is an amazing fit for our organization and I have every confidence that John will be an elemental part of our continued success!”
“When I first thought of joining Spirit Aeronautics, I was concerned that my experience wouldn’t transition to the Aviation industry in the same ways I was accustomed but after spending time with the Executive Team going over the Business Plan and vision for the future, I realized that Spirit Aeronautics was the only place I wanted to be,” said John Williamson, CFO. “This is an unbelievable opportunity with an incredible company that has strong values and a clearly defined vision. I couldn’t wait to get started and every day since has been truly exciting and rewarding. I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings!”
