Dallas, Texas-headquartered charter, management, and aircraft sales company Leviate Air Group has expanded its US east coast office with the addition of Brandon Steele as regional vice president of aircraft sales, Florida. Based in Tampa, Steele will be working closely with regional vice president of aircraft sales, east coast Michael Barber.

Leviate Air Group and Leviate Jets Sales continue to see significant growth and recently set new company records for transaction volume and total company revenue.

“As the company continues to grow, it is imperative that our clients continue receiving the trusted guidance and exceptional customer service they have grown to expect from us,” says president Randall Mize. “Brandon's transition to the sales team will ensure they do.”

Steele's passion for aviation led him to begin his early aviation career working as a charter broker. Since joining Leviate, he has brokered close to $500,000 in charter sales. Steele turned his attention to aircraft sales while assisting a charter client through their first acquisition, and continued to work in charter sales as he began working alongside Barber to prepare for the transition to the sales team.

“I am extremely excited to continue to grow as a professional and expand my knowledge of the industry that I've come to love,” says Steele. “I'm grateful to the entire sales team for how they have facilitated this transition with the same level of enthusiasm as I have.”

Barber adds: “I am excited to bring onto our team the wealth of knowledge that Brandon has from his decade in charter sales. His extensive knowledge of end-user needs and an ability to find solutions to difficult problems will result in the attention to detail that we pride ourselves on.

As Leviate Air Group expands in 2023, it looks forward to welcoming new team members, new clients and new opportunities.
