Thierry Betbeze has been appointed CEO of
Dassault Aviation.
Betbeze was most recently working at Dassault
Falcon Jet as Senior Vice President of Finance.
He replaces Jean Rosanvallon, who is
stepping-down after leading DFJ for 23 years. Rosanvallon, a
44-year Dassault veteran, will serve as Special Senior Advisor to
Dassault Aviation Chairman & CEO, Eric Trappier, during a transition
period.
“Thierry’s appointment is the latest in a number
of recent changes intended to reinforce our worldwide sales,
marketing and customer support effort,” said Trappier. “His
extensive experience in international finance, along with the
recent appointments of Carlos Brana, Executive Vice President
Civil Aircraft and head of Worldwide Falcon sales and marketing,
and Jean Kayanakis, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Falcon
Customer Service & Service Center Network, will ensure the
enduring success of the Falcon brand in today’s demanding business
aviation environment."
Betbeze began his career at
Dassault Aviation in 1984 as a cost accountant and switched to
export financing with a wide range of responsibilities including
treasury and currency hedging, before being promoted to Senior
Vice President Finance in 2004.
He holds a Master’s Degree
in Finance from France’s Ecole Supérieur de Commerce et de
Management (ESCEM).
