From 2017 to 2021, van Eijk worked as Commercial Director at IAS Inter Aviation Services. In February 2021, he started his own interim management and consultancy firm, called Chéváro, named after his two sons, Ché and Alváro, the release added.

With Ralph’s network and capabilities to connect the right products and persons within the air cargo industry, we can deliver a unique value proposition for our members. Our key objective is to partner with our GSSA members and set new standards of excellence by jointly developing new total cargo management products and delivering innovative cargo solutions to the aviation and logistics community. Our goal is to empower members to seamlessly, efficiently, profitably, and sustainably scale air cargo trade capacity.”

“My assignment with NAV expands the current network of independent GSSAs around the world. As we are already involved with some outstanding GSSA partners in different regions, we can offer airlines the quality they are looking for, an all-encompassing contact who will bring the best for both worlds.
