Jet Support Services (JSSI) has appointed George Kleros as senior vice president of its JSSI Advisory Services division.

In his new role, Kleros will be responsible for operational oversight of all JSSI appraisal, asset inspection and maintenance event management products. He will also collaborate on commercial initiatives.

“I have no doubt that George is the best person to support the organisation’s continued growth,” said JSSI’s Chairman Emeritus Lou Seno. “His comprehensive experience, qualifications and industry connections will serve him well in leading JSSI Advisory Services toward continued success and further innovation.”

Kleros has spent more than 30 years in aviation maintenance, working across management, field support services and business jet appraisals. An accredited senior appraiser through the American Society of Appraisers (ASA), Kleros most recently served as senior vice president of strategic event management and fleet support at JSSI and has held senior roles with Textron Flight Services and Rolls-Royce North America during his long career.

He also serves on several boards including the Westchester Aircraft Maintenance Association and the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Aviation Maintenance Science Industry Advisory Board.

“As JSSI Advisory Services has continued to scale, the operational requirements have become more global and robust,” said Kleros. “I am proud to take up my new role, as we seek to grow our offering of products and services to support informed aircraft ownership and operating decisions.”
