Charter broker Air Partner has appointed Eliska Hill as global senior vice president of cargo.

Hill will be responsible for overseeing operations and strategic growth within the company’s cargo division for all markets globally.

She has over 25 years of experience within the aviation sector and most recently was chief commercial officer at European Cargo.

Hill has also previously held senior positions at Chapman Freeborn in the UK and UAE, as well as with other cargo carriers and brokers including Emirates and Air Charter International.

She will be based in the UK and will report into Kevin Macnaughton, managing director of charter for Wheels Up-owned Air Partner.

“I’m excited to join Air Partner to drive the growth of the cargo division forward in key markets globally. The company has a great network of experts in place, combined with a vast global footprint which makes us perfectly placed to deliver first-class service to a diverse customer base,” said Hill.

Macnaughton added: “We are delighted to welcome Eliska to the Air Partner Team, further strengthening our global cargo capabilities. I am confident that Eliska’s extensive experience will be pivotal in the growth of our cargo division going forward.”

In May, Air Partner appointed Patti Cole as head of time-critical services for North America as it aimed to expand in the segment.
