Santiago Tejedo is new head of air freight at Priority Freight

Priority Freight has appointed Santiago Tejedo (pictured above, left) to the newly created role of head of air freight, as part of a double appointment.

Mr Tejedo steps over from his role as general manager of Priority’s operations in Madrid, having joined the company in 2016 from Altius where he spent four years as air freight manager.

He said he had some “immediate” goals, including the establishment of a team to coordinate across all offices.

His role heading Spanish operations will be filled by Gabriel Dopazo (pictured above, right), who moves from corporate business development where he has served for more than a decade.
