Global Jet Capital has appointed Tom Kacin to serve as the VP of Sales for the Northeastern and Midwest U.S. region. Kacin, a seasoned financial services and equipment financing expert, will be pivotal in developing relationships and supporting clients across these key areas. He will report to Mike Christie, who stepped into the role of Head of Sales for the Americas in March.

Kacin is enthusiastic about the market and joining Global Jet Capital, said, “I’m looking forward to the opportunity to help both corporate and UHNWI clients benefit from the innovative and customized financing solutions Global Jet Capital offers for the business aviation market.”
In alignment with this appointment, Global Jet Capital is executing a strategic realignment of its North American sales territories to optimize its sales force and capitalize on market opportunities.

- John Arlinghaus, formerly Associate Sales Director of the Central U.S. region, will now oversee the Western U.S. region as well as Latin America.
Christie, Head of Sales for the Americas, noted, “We are delighted to welcome Tom to our dynamic team. Tom’s passion for aviation and strong equipment finance background will help us continue to provide bespoke solutions to our clients. The territory realignment will provide better coverage of key markets allowing our team to be closer to our key partners.”
