Branco brings decades of expertise to JSSI
Rodrigo Castelo Branco holds a degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, as well as specialisations in Integrated Management Systems from the Pontifical Catholic University.

JSSI has added Rodrigo Castelo Branco to its technical services team. He will work to support JSSI's growing airframe fleet in Brazil and Latin America.

Branco brings almost 30 years of business aviation experience mainly focused on maintenance. Prior to joining JSSI, he spent 28 years at Líder Aviação, holding the maintenance manager position since 2010, where he oversaw a team of 60 technical and administrative employees as he managed the maintenance for all third-party aircraft and the company's own fleet.

“Rodrigo is a tremendous addition to JSSI's support team. He has dedicated the majority of his career to business aircraft maintenance and spent many years at a leading service centre in Brazil, which had authorisations to work across a wide range of aircraft manufacturers. His extensive hangar experience and deep technical expertise will be invaluable in supporting our clients' airframe maintenance needs. I'm genuinely excited to welcome him to JSSI,” reveals David Caporali, SVP of strategy and head of business development for Latin America.
