FORMER Zenith Payments CEO Peter Egglestone has accepted his first major leadership role since departing the business, with Aeronology naming the experienced executive as CEO.
Aeronology is a cloud-based and API-driven B2B travel transaction tech business designed to make aviation retailing easier.
The move has seen long-standing chief Russell Carstensen exit the position, however he will remain with the business for the transitional period and still owns a significant stake in Aeronology.
Egglestone’s (pictured) appointment is designed to place a greater emphasis on business development and customer-led growth moving forward.
“Our world-class technology, talented people, combined with a new customer focus gives us a unique opportunity to drive value for airlines and travel agencies worldwide,” Egglestone said.
Aeronology added that under Carstensen’s leadership, the company had moved from a concept to a proven platform, delivering world-class technology.
“It has been incredibly rewarding to see Aeronology’s technology make a real impact across the industry and I am confident that Peter’s leadership will take the company to new heights,” Carstensen said.
The company has brokered a number of deals with a range of blue chips brands, including Virtuoso and United Airlines.
