CARDIFF Airport has appointed a new chief executive.

Former Brains chief executive lands top job at Cardiff Airport

Jon Bridge

Jon Bridge, whose previous roles include chief executive of brewing and hospitality company SA Brain & Co, will take up his position at the helm of the Welsh Government-owned airport next month.

The role has been held in an interim capacity by board member Andy Jones following the departure of former chief executive Spencer Birns in March. No reason for his exit from what was a £131,000 remunerated role was given.

Mr Bridge said: "I'm honoured to be joining Cardiff Airport at such a pivotal time. The national airport of Wales is a vital asset for our country, providing economic benefits, jobs and ensures global connectivity. We are striving to be the first choice for airline passengers and the centre of Wales' aviation-related industry.
