GENEVA, SWITZERLAND, May 20, 2016 / BUSINESS AVIATION NEWS – As the Avfuel Network continues to grow internationally, so does the Avfuel family, hiring the right people in strategic locations across Europe to better support an expanding network of branded FBOs and contract fuel locations. Stop by Avfuel Booth G089 to meet with dedicated Avfuel representatives, serving your European travel needs.


Philippe Jacquemart, District Manager EMEA:
Jacquemart is Avfuel Corporation’s most recent staff addition, having joined in January 2016 following two years working for a fuel supplier, and more than four years working with an international trip-planning company. Recognizing the need for a fueling representative in the heart of Europe to assist operators, Avfuel hired Jacquemart to be based in Geneva, Switzerland.

As part of his duties, Jacquemart is responsible for developing relationships with existing and prospect contract fuel customers by calling flight departments of international companies to gain an assessment of their needs. Jacquemart provides these customers with ongoing support, information and guidance in their aviation fuel requirements while discovering new needs based on industry trends. In addition, he works with ground operations managers, pilots, accounting and financial managers, and aircraft owners and CEOs, handling their fuel orders from quotes and fuel releases to tenders.

Ryan Hogg, Contract Fuel Sales: Operating out of Belfast, Northern Ireland, Ryan Hogg has been with Avfuel for two years, representing Avflight as the operations manager for Belfast/Isle of Man and Avfuel as a contract fuel representative. As a member of the Avfuel staff, Hogg manages a number of European accounts, including corporate flight departments, military and air ambulance operations. In addition, Hogg looks after full-load customers in Ireland by ordering and overseeing the dispatch of aviation fuels. In his role, Hogg serves as the main point of contact for some of Avfuel’s branded FBO locations: Woodgate Aviation (EGAA), Waterford Airport (EIWF) and The Private Jet Company (EGNS).

This is all in addition to his extensive list of responsibilities as operations manager for Avflight Belfast City/Isle of Man, including ensuring policies are followed, targeting new clients through market research, promoting the Avfuel and Avflight brands, running reports, monitoring progress, training staff, and more. In total, Hogg has been involved in the aviation industry for eight years specializing in operations.

Neal Betchley, Regional Director of Commercial Sales: Betchley joined Avfuel in November 2014, bringing years of European aviation sales expertise to the Avfuel team. In his role, Betchley focusses primarily on business activity with corporate aviation customers. He also works closely with owners, CEOs and other business directors to re-educate, drive and evolve business activity, internal processes and systems to include commercial airline activity on both a regional and global basis.

In conjunction with these duties, Betchley helps Avfuel expand its network of suppliers while enhancing existing supply relationships. Utilizing a vast network of customer relationships built over his tenure in the aviation industry since 1985, Betchley plays an integral role in expanding Avfuel’s sales activities on a global basis to those domiciled within Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and beyond.

Dan Bull, District Manager: Based in Essex County, England, Bull joined Avfuel in February of 2013 as a District Manager. In his position, Bull interfaces with both prospective Avfuel-branded FBOs and Avfuel Contract Fuel agents to broaden Avfuel’s presence throughout the EMEA Region. Bull acts as Avfuel’s European lead on accounts and supply contracts while working to develop relationships with operators in the Middle East and Asia. Recently, he led the acquisition of two European FBO and In-to-Plane operations into the Avflight network.

In addition, Bull manages Avfuel's relationship with nine branded FBOs across Europe where his duties include business development, quality assurance, account management, front-desk training, systems training and collaboration between the end customer and Avfuel's in-house marketing department. Bull has experience negotiating contracts with upstream suppliers, GA operators, global fuel tenders, commercial airline supply contracts, and military/government contracts. Through his time in aviation, he has accrued more than 11 years of experience.
