Ex air cargo leaders join Awery Aviation Software

Awery Aviation Software (Awery) has appointed David Kerr and Christian Gessner to support its ongoing growth and expanding global customer base.

Gessner has been appointed business development manager, bolstering Awery’s commercial team, while Kerr, joining on a consultancy basis, will support the software provider with overall strategic growth and customer engagement.

With over two decades of experience in air cargo, including roles at the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and several aviation software providers, Gessner brings expertise in sales, marketing, business transformation, and supporting the development and adoption of air cargo technology.

Gessner said: “Awery has built a strong reputation for delivering ERP solutions that genuinely support cargo operators day-to-day, while also playing a key role in accelerating technology adoption across an industry that has historically been slow to digitise.

“I’m joining Awery to tackle a critical industry challenge: accelerating the adoption of practical technology that delivers measurable gains in efficiency, compliance and performance for cargo operators worldwide.”

Kerr joins Awery with extensive senior leadership experience across the air cargo sector, including almost a decade at American Airlines, before moving on to senior leadership roles within Etihad Cargo and European Cargo.

Kerr said: “Having worked closely with airline cargo teams for many years, I understand the operational priorities and challenges Awery’s customers face, and what it takes to deliver tools that bring real improvements.

“I am excited about the opportunity to join the dots of cross-industry initiatives, and to build on the current momentum of industry digitalisation with Awery’s practical and effective tools.”
