ST Engineering has appointed Jeffrey Lam as Group Deputy Chief Executive Officer, with effect from 1 June 2026, following an announcement dated 28 May 2026.
Lam currently serves as Group Chief Operating Officer (Operations Excellence) and President, Commercial Aerospace, roles he will relinquish as he moves into the new Group Deputy CEO position. In his new capacity, he will continue to report to Group President and Chief Executive Officer Vincent Chong and will remain a member of the Group Executive Committee.
As Group Deputy CEO, Lam will support the Group CEO on the group’s strategic priorities and will provide management oversight of ST Engineering’s Commercial Aerospace business, without retaining operational leadership of the division. As part of the governance reshuffle, Kevin Chow, currently Head of Aerostructures and Systems within Commercial Aerospace, will be appointed to succeed Lam as President, Commercial Aerospace.
ST Engineering is a Singapore-based technology group with activities that include commercial aeronautics through its Commercial Aerospace unit. The creation of the Group Deputy CEO role and the associated leadership changes in Commercial Aerospace mark an evolution in the group’s senior governance structure and the succession at the head of its commercial aviation activities.
