Former ST Aerospace Executive Joseph Ng To Lead The Company
Ascent Aviation Services Corporation has named Joseph Ng as the Company's new Chief Executive Officer, effective November 1st. Mr. Ng joins Ascent with over 30 years of executive experience in the management of aircraft maintenance and quality systems.
Mr. Ng began his career with ST Aerospace in 1990 and after continuous advancement within multiple divisions of the company, he was named President of ST Aerospace's Mobile Division (VT Mobile Aerospace Engineering, previously known as ST Aerospace Mobile) in 2005. During his nine years at VT Mobile Aerospace Engineering, the company's sales grew by 120%. Mr. Ng was responsible for the oversight of 1,300 employees at ST Aerospace's Mobile operations, which included a total of nine hangars, capable of accommodating eight wide body and ten narrow body aircraft simultaneously for heavy aircraft maintenance and aircraft modifications. Mr. Ng served six years in the Republic of Singapore Airforce and received his degree in Mechanical Engineering at the National University of Singapore.
"I am honored to have been selected to serve as CEO of Ascent Aviation and look forward to driving growth with the Ascent team and furthering its reputation for providing reliable and exceptional service to its customers in the narrow body MRO market," Ng said.
"We consider ourselves fortunate to attract an MRO executive with the breadth and depth of experience of Joseph Ng," said Ascent Chairman John McNamara. "As we near the end of construction of a new 45,000 sq ft hangar, Joseph will provide valuable strategic direction and leadership while the Company doubles its heavy maintenance capacity and enhances its existing service capabilities."
Joseph Ng will succeed Michael Melvin, who joined Ascent as President and Chief Financial Officer in 2010. Effective with the transition, Mr. Melvin will dedicate full attention to the CFO function of the Company.
