The HAECO Group has announced several senior management changes at its airframe services division which it says will enhance its commitment to providing customers with leading MRO services.

Ben Scheidel joins the HAECO Group leadership team as group director for airframe services, effective September 1, 2024.

Scheidel succeeds Jacqueline Jiang who moves within the Swire group to the role of chair for the Chinese Mainland of John Swire & Sons (China) Ltd.

With Scheidel moving into a HAECO Group role, Peter Murton will succeed him as chief executive of HAECO Hong Kong, and Derek Hui will take over as the new executive general manager of operations, overseeing base and line maintenance services in Hong Kong.

Bill Collins, president of MRO Services in HAECO Americas, will retire from the HAECO Group at year-end. Todd Navin, the current chief financial officer at HAECO Americas, will succeed Collins, effective January 2025.

Richard Sell, HAECO Group chief executive, said: “We greatly appreciate the longstanding trust and support of our valued partners. Our new senior management team in Airframe Services will leverage their diverse talent and experience to build upon this successful collaboration and continue to work closely with our customers to ensure that we are addressing their MRO needs.

“We look forward to further strengthening these relationships in the years ahead as we continue to grow the HAECO Group.”
