JSSI Parts & Engines Expands Commercial and Operations Leadership

Jamie Benthusen and Timothée Marcie, JSSI Parts & Engines

JSSI Parts & Engines (JPE) has added two senior leaders to its commercial and operations teams, deepening the expertise behind its growing parts and assets business. Jamie Benthusen joins as Senior Director of Operations, and Timothée Marcie joins as Director, Asset Sales & Acquisitions, EMEAA, extending JPE’s whole-assets sales and acquisition coverage across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. 

Both appointments bring senior, hands-on expertise to a business that keeps parts and assets moving around the world while staying close to customers across an expanding set of regional markets. 

“These are two people who make us stronger where it counts, close to our customers and behind the scenes where the work gets done. Jamie brings the operational depth that keeps parts and assets moving reliably worldwide, and Timothée brings the regional expertise and deal experience to extend our reach across EMEAA. Both are excellent additions as we build a more focused, regionally accountable business,” said Philipe Figueiredo, Global Vice President, JSSI Parts & Engines. 

Jamie Benthusen, Senior Director of Operations

Jamie Benthusen brings more than 30 years of experience across aviation operations, aftermarket, and global supply chain management. He joins JSSI from INAV LLC, where, as a member of the executive leadership team, he built the operations function that supported a period of significant company growth. 

His background covers what a parts and assets business runs on: worldwide movement of high-value aerospace assets, customs and tariff compliance, quality management to ASA 100 standards, and vendor and logistics networks that hold up under pressure. At JSSI, he now leads operations for JPE, focused on the systems and teams that get certified material where it needs to be, documented and on time, as inventory and demand grow. 

“JSSI Parts & Engines has real scale and real ambition, and strong operations are what turn that into reliable delivery for customers. I’m looking forward to enhancing our efficiencies and building the systems that keep the business moving as it grows, all while maintaining the operational excellence our customers and partners have come to expect from us,” said Benthusen. 

Timothée Marcie, Director, Asset Sales & Acquisitions, EMEAA 

Timothée Marcie joins from the aircraft brokerage world, with companies such as Boutsen Aviation and Tangmere Aircraft Sales where, over the past 12 years, he built a track record in large-cabin aircraft sales and acquisitions across emerging markets, closing transactions spanning a wide range of business jet platforms, as well as founding an AI-powered aviation marketplace platform from the ground up. 

Earlier in his career, he led sales across Northern and Eastern China for Dassault Falcon Jet, helping grow the region’s operating fleet from three aircraft to more than 30, and developed working fluency in Mandarin along the way. 

His experience across new and pre-owned aircraft sales, exclusive mandate negotiations, and cross-border deal structuring positions him to expand JPE’s presence in EMEAA. As part of a regional sales structure that pairs dedicated leaders with each market, he covers whole-asset sales and aircraft acquisition across the region, working alongside JPE’s regional sales directors to open new opportunities and move transactions faster.

“JSSI has become a true cornerstone of this industry, and JPE is at the heart of that, keeping operators flying by continuously growing its parts and engines inventory to meet the market’s needs. I’m glad to be joining a growing team of experts in the region, and I’m looking forward to contributing to that momentum in EMEAA, said Marcie. 

Please join us in welcoming Jamie and Timothée to the JSSI team.
