PA Consulting (PA), the company that’s bringing ingenuity to life, has appointed Guy Stephenson as an Executive Advisor within its Aviation team. Guy will work with PA’s aviation experts to support airlines and airports in improving their strategic, commercial, and operational performance. This includes leveraging opportunities in digital transformation and responding effectively to the changing aviation landscape.
Guy brings almost 35 years’ experience in the aviation and transport sector. Most recently, he was Gatwick Airport’s Chief Commercial Officer for nearly a decade, where he was accountable for delivering passenger traffic, setting global airline route development, commercial and surface access strategies, and managing airline, retail, and commercial partnerships.
Guy previously served as the Commercial Director of Thomsonfly, the UK-based scheduled and charter airline, leading on network, commercial proposition, and revenue development until its merger with First Choice in 2007 to create TUI Travel Plc. He was also the Commercial Director of National Express Coach Division, where he was responsible for the business’ network, revenue, and customer operations, as well as its Eurolines international business. Prior to this, Guy held Director positions at Credit Suisse and Barclays, focusing on the Global Air Transport Sector advisory business and aviation cross-border financing respectively.
Guy is a highly experienced aviation and transport executive, and we are delighted that he will be working with our aviation team to help airlines, airports, investors, and the wider aviation supply chain deliver enduring results. Guy brings a wealth of experience in the UK and beyond and I know he will be an asset to our team and our clients alike.”
I’m very pleased to have the opportunity to work alongside PA’s team of experts in aviation. The industry has built back strongly from the pandemic, but many challenges still lie ahead, as well as great opportunities for the sector. I am convinced that PA has the expertise and intellectual firepower to unlock these opportunities, and to support its clients in building smarter, more efficient, more resilient, and more sustainable businesses.”
PA’s aviation experts work across the industry to create opportunity from the rapidly evolving complexities facing the sector today. This includes advising on strategy, transactions, and restructuring; improving commercial outcomes through smarter pricing, innovative products and partnerships; and helping organisations deliver better services. PA’s teams also support businesses in ensuring the safety and security of passengers and cargo, maintaining critical systems and networks, and technology-enabled transformation.
