US-based aircraft acquisition and sale company OGaraJets has partnered with Afnan Islam, a client experience consultant with industry experience, technical expertise and project management skills.

“Afnan's experience within the industry and project management acuity really make him a solid fit for the client experience we are hoping to enhance,” says VP of business integration Ashley Charnley. “His ability to absorb all that we have developed thus far and see the areas we can improve upon has already made an impact on our processes. We are pleased to partner with and have him join our team.”

A graduate of the Florida Institute of Technology, Islam earned his BSc in aerospace engineering and immediately landed a position working for the Brazilian aircraft manufacturer Embraer. He has extensive experience in project management, client support, developing processes and helping with efficiency.

“My goal at OGaraJets is to keep our clients' best interest in mind," he says. "I have been tasked with an important responsibility that when a client places their trust and confidence in OGara, they will receive the absolute best service and experience. And this level of service to a client does not end with the completion of a transaction, it is an indefinite bond.”
