Swissport recently appointed Dave Lynch as the Group Chief Information Officer (CIO) and member of the Executive Leadership Team. He will report to Warwick Brady, President & CEO of Swissport.
Lynch will succeed Giuseppe Genovesi, who stepped down from his position in July. Since then, Peter Billiau has been serving as an interim CIO.
Thanking Peter Billiau for his contributions as interim CIO, Warwick Brady said: “Peter hit the ground running and has been leading Group IT as a very effective and inspirational CIO. He has energized the team and led them to go above and beyond to support Swissport's goal of being the digital leader in aviation services.”
Brady welcomed Lynch to his new role. “We are delighted to announce Dave Lynch as our new Group CIO,” commented Warwick. “With his vast experience, Dave has what it takes to bring Swissport to the next level of process integration and digitization, supporting a further enhanced service delivery,” he further added.
Prior to joining Swissport, Lynch was Group CIO of FirstGroup since 2014 where he drove an ambitious IT transformation and digitisation agenda and positioned FirstGroup to exploit the business opportunities presented by digital transformation.
