AJW Group


Profile

Scott is a senior aviation executive who joined AJW Group as Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) in 2023 bringing 30 years of experience across the leasing, airline, OEM, and MRO sectors and has achieved an Executive MBA with Distinction.

He is responsible for driving the strategic sales plan across the AJW portfolio business lines and works hand in hand with other members of the Executive team and key leaders across the organisation to develop and implement an integrated commercial strategy.

Prior to joining AJW, Scott led the commercial, sales and marketing functions of a Dublin based aircraft lessor. Having developed the commercial team and built the platform to manage an 80 aircraft portfolio, Scott is committed to AJW’s mission to transform aviation efficiency. Starting his aviation career straight from school as an apprentice aircraft fitter at BAE SYSTEMS, he made quick progress at the company, becoming a licensed aircraft maintenance engineer, and then transferring to Toulouse to join technical support before moving into commercial roles. After 20 years at BAE, he moved to Athens to initiate Europe’s biggest ever start-up airline, Olympic Air, where he negotiated multiple aircraft leases, PBH and support contracts as well as starting the third-party MRO business. After, he relocated back to Scotland to set up and implement the aircraft leasing support strategy for the company which is now Collins Aerospace.
