Ettore Poggi joined ExecuJet at Lanseria Airport in 2002 as Managing Director for South Africa, affiliated to the ExecuJet Aviation Group based in Switzerland. As a member of the Group Management Committee, some of his varied responsibilities include general management, marketing and sales activities to promote a range of private luxury jets, supplier relations, and human resources. ExecuJet offers a broad range of professional services such as new and pre-owned aircraft sales, aircraft management on behalf of the owner, charter, FBO and maintenance. The staff complement has grown to 285 rapidly over the last few years, with the construction of the Cape Town facility being completed in 2009.
Born in Johannesburg to Italian parents in April 1954, Ettore spent his school years at Maritz Brothers College, Observatory. He continued his education at the University of the Witwatersrand, where he received his Bachelor of Science Degree in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science. Ettore joined Persetel Africa in 1982, later to be renamed Comparex, and listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange a company which is the largest supplier of IT services in Southern Africa. Starting as a Systems Engineer, he carried out installations of major computer systems at large financial institutions, and provided ongoing support and maintenance on those systems. From Regional to National Engineering Manager, he was responsible for roughly 300 hardware and software engineers countrywide, and was then promoted to Chief Executive of Operations. With his final rise to Regional Chief Executive, the Gauteng region of 1600 employees fell under his control, representing 70% of group revenue and profits. Ettore’s major areas of responsibility included general management planning and reporting, sales, outsource activities and after sales support and maintenance. The company’s revenue increased from R600 million to R1,600 million during his tenure.
