His appreciation for an ever-changing industry and entrepreneurial flair sets Rupert out as a natural successor.
Leggett joined the company in 2018 having held several senior positions in the industry over the previous 15 years, most recently at Plane Business and Aergo Capital. Leggett initially had joined the company with responsibility for aircraft trading and was promoted to Chief Commercial Officer in 2021.
“It has been an honour to serve as CEO of FPG Amentum during this period of transformation and growth, and I want to offer my sincere thanks to our employees whose hard work and dedication have allowed us to achieve so much,” said Bouzaima. “I also want to thank our customers, shareholders, and the Board of Directors for their ongoing support.
