24 February 2021: STG Aerospace has appointed Grant Bennett as the new CEO to lead their journey of growth and recovery to meet the existing and new market demands.
Grant Bennett is an accomplished manufacturing leader with an experience of over three decades. He has served diverse markets like Consumer Electronics, Defence, Medical, Automotive and Military & Commercial Aerospace. He joined STG Aerospace at the end of June 2017 in the role of Chief Operating Officer. With a brief to lead the Engineering, Quality, Supply Chain and Manufacturing Operations organisation through a journey of change and continuous improvement which would build a strong, resilient and interdependent team.
Commenting on his appointment Grant Bennett said, “I am excited by the new challenge this brings, humbled to be offered this most significant role by our shareholders and grateful for the exceptional team around me that has taught me so much and supported my STG journey so far. I am absolutely certain that our simple approach of ‘keep all our people safe and maintain business continuity’ and then doing everything we could to ensure those two things, meant we were able to keep both our UK & US sites operational throughout the year and achieve on time supply to all our customers.”
Just like the rest of the aerospace industry 2020 was a year of change at STG, some planned but mostly out of necessity as they wrestled to respond quickly as the world began to buckle under the pandemic.
