Aged 50, married, father of two, Jean-Luc Sturlese has a doctorate in Industrial Computing, and began his career in Industrial Engineering Design Offices. In 1988, he joined Aérospatiale’s Helicopter Division, which became Eurocopter in 1992.
In that same Company’s Helicopters Division, Jean-Luc Sturlese successively took part in the activities of the IT, Industrial Management, Customer Support and Programmes Departments. In Eurocopter’s Civil Programmes Department, he was in charge of the helicopter assembly lines in Marignane and abroad.
After a career spanning 22 years in helicopters, Jean-Luc Sturlese was keen to get involved in a new industrial adventure by taking part in the birth and development of a leading player in the aerostructure sector, Aerolia.
“In my view, Aerolia was the best possible choice for making that desire a reality, and my first weeks in the company have confirmed that I made the right choice. Aerolia is an assemblage of skills that shows every sign of being a great success. I am happy to be able to place at the service of this new company and the people who work there the professional and human values that I have forged in my successive experiences in the aerospace industry. With all the teams at Aerolia, we are going to bring about this capital development in Méaulte: the implementation of composite materials on the A350 XWB’s nose cone,” declares Jean-Luc Sturlese.
As Director of the Méaulte Site, Jean-Luc Sturlese is taking over from Didier Bonnin, Director of Operations in charge of Aerolia’s various industrial sites.
