Craig Richardson - Sales, Marketing and Leasing Director
Craig was born in 1966 in Lanarkshire, Scotland and was educated at South Park School, going on to complete an Aero Engineering Apprenticeship at Rolls Royce East Kilbride, Scotland.
Whilst completing his apprenticeship, Craig also studied Mechanical Engineering and Supervisory Management at Glasgow Technology College and Stow College in Glasgow, Scotland.
After nine years Craig embarked on his overseas travels which ultimately resulted in his fifteen years in Christchurch, New Zealand. He was employed originally by Air New Zealand Engineering, then by Pratt And Whitney as their Commercial Engine Field Representative and ultimately working at the Christchurch Engine Centre, an Air New Zealand, Pratt And Whitney joint venture.
During his time in Christchurch, Craig worked in a number of roles, including Engineering and Sales and Customer Services. Craig was involved in some strategic projects in Christchurch such as the Air New Zealand quality management system redevelopment and the facilitation of the joint venture between Air New Zealand and Pratt and Whitney in New Zealand.
Craig joined TES in early 2008 as the Sales and Marketing Director, returning to the UK after almost twenty years overseas.
