Airswift expands board with two industry non-exec directors

Airswift, a global workforce solutions provider, has appointed Melody Meyer and Don Sloan as independent non-executive board members.

The NED appointments come as STEM specialist Airswift continues to expand its global footprint and enhance its AI-driven talent sourcing capabilities, following Airswift’s acquisition last year by private equity firm Gemspring Capital.

According to a company statement, Airswift remains committed to advancing its M&A strategy, strengthening its leadership team and enhancing workforce solutions for its clients. 

Meyer brings more than 35 years of leadership experience in the energy sector, including board positions at BP and AbbVie. As well as a strong advocate for women in energy, she has deep expertise in global operations, R&D and merger integration, making her a key adviser as Airswift navigates industry shifts and growth opportunities.

Sloan, a seasoned technology and workforce solutions leader with over 25 years’ experience, has served as CIO at Randstad USA and Kforce. His experience as a digital strategist and knowledge of leveraging technology to enhance business performance and operational efficiency will play a pivotal role in driving Airswift’s innovation and digital transformation.

Janette Marx, Airswift CEO, said: “Adding Melody and Don to our board marks a significant milestone in our growth, reflecting the incredible progress we’ve made as a global team committed to solving talent challenges worldwide. Their leadership will be instrumental in shaping our strategy as we continue to meet the evolving workforce needs of the energy transition.”
