Air Charter Service (ACS) has announced the promotion of Hong Kong-based Joseph Tam to the position of Cargo Director for ACS' newly defined Greater China region.

James Royds-Jones, recently appointed as regional director for Greater China, noted that Tam — who has been with ACS for more than 12 years now — has "unparalleled" experience in the region and leads by example in the cargo sector here from the Hong Kong office.

"In his new role, Joseph will be working even more closely with our cargo teams in both Shanghai and Beijing, as well as in his own in Hong Kong. We will be looking to strengthen the team in the region further in the new year as we look to develop our already substantial presence in Greater China," said Justin Bowman, chief executive at ACS.

Royds-Jones added: "This is an exciting time for ACS in the Greater China region, and we are all confident that Joseph is the right person to drive the cargo side of the business here."
