ABL Industries is pleased to welcome Martin Williamson to the team as Head of Business Development. Martin joins us with over 38 years of experience across Sales, Marketing, Business Development, and Commercial strategy, with a primary focus on aviation aftermarket services and MRO.
Martin’s career spans some of the most recognised names in the aerospace industry. He held senior positions at Short Brothers, Bombardier Aerospace, and Spirit AeroSystems, where he led global Sales, Marketing, Commercial, and Business Development functions. During his time at Bombardier, he built and led a proactive sales and marketing team of more than 20 people globally, growing component product line revenue from £20m to £120m and securing major contracts with customers including British Airways, Cathay Pacific, DHL, Lufthansa, United Airlines, and Wizz Air, among others.
Following his time in aerospace, Martin successfully transitioned into the construction sector, taking senior management responsibility at Moore Concrete for a precast concrete business serving Agriculture, Building, and Civils. He led multidisciplinary teams across Sales, Marketing, Commercial, and Business Development, growing revenue from £17m to £22m before returning to aviation.
Martin has now returned to aviation to support ABL Industries’ strategic expansion, helping grow our MRO business through targeted commercial development, customer engagement, and market positioning.
Welcome to the team, Martin!
