G-OPS, a French business aviation company specialising in flight support for business aviation, governmental and diplomatic air operations, has recently announced the appointment of Nicolas Massonnat as managing director, working alongside Karim Berrandou, president and founder.

In this role, Massonnat will lead the company's operations and oversee the execution of its strategic roadmap, built around three priorities: operational robustness, network growth and deeper technological integration, all designed to deliver lasting value for clients, employees and partners alike.

He joins the executive leadership after serving as vice president, business development, where he led G-OPS's commercial strategy and its development across European and institutional markets. His appointment ensures continuity in the company's direction while reinforcing its capacity to serve a demanding international clientele.

“Nicolas's appointment reflects both the continuity of our leadership and our determination to further strengthen and consolidate the organisation,” says Karim Berrandou, president and founder. “His experience of our markets and his understanding of our operational standards make him the right person to lead the company into its next phase of growth.”

“G-OPS has built a solid reputation over more than 20 years,” Massonnat adds. “My priority is to consolidate that foundation, strengthen our operational reliability, and further expand and reinforce our network, while maintaining the level of service our clients and partners expect.”

Karim Berrandou shares: “Our greatest strength remains our team and the trust we have built with our clients and partners. Behind every successful operation stands a strong organisation and a dedicated team. Today, as we continue to strengthen our foundations while growing, our vision remains unchanged: making every operation smoother, simpler and more efficient.”

Available 24/7, its OCC (operations control centre) responds to all requests, setting up, coordinating and overseeing all operations, on-site supervision, ground handling support, fuel supply, parking and slot coordination, concierge services, civil aviation tax declarations and more.
