I originally started as an Account Handler in our Customer Support department, controlling MEL Aviation’s biggest accounts by providing daily support to a number of major companies within the Civil Aviation industry.In 2015 I progressed into Business Development following the strong business relationships I had developed whilst in Customer Support. I now work closely with the Managing Director and Directors of the company, with my main responsibility being to assist with the growth of MEL Aviation Ltd as well as other companies within The MEL Group. This includes various tasks, but essentially I am always striving to develop and strengthen relationships with both existing & new customers, as well as suppliers too, which enables us to offer the best value to our customers. My main achievements to date in this role have been to win several large contracts, and also working with some of the biggest companies in Aviation, changing their perception of MEL Aviation Ltd from negatives to being our biggest customers.
