CARDIFF Airport has appointed a new chief executive.

- SION BARRY Business editor sion.barry@walesonline.co.uk

Jon Bridge, whose previous roles include being chief executive of brewing and hospitality company SA Brain& Co, will take up his new 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 - a former chief executive of the Port of Milford Haven - following the departure of former chief executive Spencer Birns back 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.
