Jet Aire appoints operations manager

Leeds-based drainage contractor, Jet Aire Services, has appointed Mark Lee as operations manager to help build the existing civil engineering section of the business.

Mark is highly experienced in construction and civil engineering with particular expertise in Term Maintenance Contracts which is ideally suited to his new role at Jet Aire Services. He was previously contracts manager at Ringway Infrastructure Services, where he was responsible for operations throughout an area of North Yorkshire with a combined budget in the region of £15 million. Mark also held a similar position at Balfour Beatty Infrastructure Services Ltd, where he oversaw the delivery of construction schemes valued up to £1.5 million to meet client requirements on time and within budget. Mark will now be working closely with Jet Aire’s contractor partners and overseeing the management of programme scheduling, costs, resources, staff training and safety audits for Jet Aire’s domestic and commercial drainage works throughout the region.

Jet Aire Managing Director, Charlie Kirk, said: “Mark is joining the business at an exciting time. We anticipate that the civil engineering part of our business will grow significantly over the next few years. I am delighted that Mark agreed to join us as he combines an impressive skillset with an outstanding depth of sector experience and an excellent track record in all aspects of operations and contract management, including budget and commercial targets, programme scheduling, Health and Safety compliance and customer and contractor liaison. He will certainly be a valuable member of Jet Aire’s management team as we implement our next phase of growth.”
