We’re proud to be shortlisted for the Pride of Ground Handling Awards 2025! ✈️🌍
This global event recognises the very best in aviation services, leadership, and innovation – and this year, GLC is honoured to have two leaders shortlisted in the Industry Leader of the Year category.
Our finalists, Simone Brueckner (Global Operations Executive) and Sina Petersen (Global HR Manager), stand alongside top aviation professionals from around the world.
A Double Recognition of GLC Excellence
Being shortlisted twice in the same category is more than just an individual accomplishment – it reflects the strength of our leadership culture, the calibre of our people, and the high standards we uphold as a remote aviation services provider.
Simone and Sina each represent a different pillar of GLC’s success:
• Simone has spent more than 20 years shaping GLC’s operational excellence, pioneering centralised load control, and leading our expansion across hubs and airline partners. Her strategic direction has helped make GLC a trusted global outsourcing partner.
• Sina has driven organisational growth through people, culture, and capability. From strengthening diversity to developing new business units and nurturing leadership pipelines, she plays a key role in building the future of GLC.
Their nominations reflect the values we live by every day – safety, innovation, service quality, inclusion, people development, and long-term partnership.
