Engineering graduate and MBA Stanley joined Airbus as president and managing director of Airbus India on October 1, 2018, after working in senior positions at aerospace companies UTC, Pratt & Whitney, Lockheed Martin and Sikorsky and industrial gas manufacturer, the Linde Group. He has more than two decades of experience in the region, including the M&A sector.
He will work closely with the head of region for Airbus Helicopters and Defence and Space at the manufacturer’s regional headquarters in Singapore and report to Airbus chief commercial officer and head of international, Christian Scherer.
Stanley, who holds a post graduate degree from prestigious business school, IMI-Delhi, will be responsible for commercial aircraft sales and customer affairs, group-wide government affairs, industrial and joint venture partnerships and local operations at the company’s sites across the Asia-Pacific, an Airbus statement said.
“Anand has brought a wealth of experience to Airbus and managed the company’s operations in India with very positive results,” Scherer said.
“His proven track record makes him the right choice to lead Airbus in the key Asia-Pacific market.
“We know we can count on him to focus on supporting our customers in these challenging times, while developing our position as the leading partner of the aerospace sector in the region.”
