Manchester Airport new MD

Ken O’Toole, the former Route Development Director of Ryanair, has been appointed as Managing Director of Manchester Airport with the previous holder of the post Andrew Cowan taking on the role of Chief Strategy Officer at M.A.G, the holding company for Bournemouth, East Midlands, Manchester and Stansted airports.  Ken has been M.A.G's Chief Commercial Officer since 2012.

Both appointments will be effective immediately.

Charlie Cornish, Chief Executive of M.A.G, said: “M.A.G has made remarkable progress over the past four years, and is now a fast growing airport services group with enormously strong prospects.  Both Ken and Andrew have played key roles in that transformation process.

“Thanks to Andrew's leadership, Manchester Airport is enjoying a period of sustained growth and Ken will ensure that we maintain a sharp focus on providing passengers and airlines with the level of service that is rightly expected of us, while at the same time expanding the range of routes available from the airport.

“These appointments will enable the airport to continue to flourish and help drive economic growth across the North, and support the development of the Group as a leading airport services company."    www.magworld.co.uk
