Chapman Freeborn has appointed chief operating officer Bernardo Nunes to its board.
Nunes will continue to serve in his current role, leading global operations across the Chapman Freeborn group, including Magma Aviation, Intradco Global, On Board Courier (OBC) and the Arcus Air Group.
Chapman Freeborn chief executive Eric Erbacher said: “We look forward to working more closely with him as we home in on our 2030 vision, build on the long-term growth strategy, and prove Chapman Freeborn’s hard-earned reputation as the leading air charterer.”
Nunes was appointed to the chief operating officer role last November and previously served as director of transformation and analytics.
He has more than 25 years of experience in the air cargo and finance industries.
“Since rejoining Chapman Freeborn last year, I have worked closely with Eric and the board as we have continued our expansion into new markets and strengthened strategic leadership at all levels across the group," said Nunes.
“I look forward to continuing this work as a member of the board at this exciting moment for the business.”
Nunes’ appointment comes amid a broader recruitment drive at Chapman Freeborn, with a restructure of its European team, a new vice president of its humanitarian and government division in the Americas, and a 48% increase in the number of women in management positions across the group over the last year.
