Great organizations are built through the talent, commitment, and leadership of the people who drive their growth. In line with this purpose, Talma continues to strengthen its leadership structure to further support the company’s development in Colombia.

As of June 9, 2026, Julián Laverde Bermúdez serves as General Manager of Talma Colombia. With more than 20 years of experience in the aviation industry, he has held senior leadership positions in leading companies within the sector, including CEO of Avianca Express and Senior Vice President of Network Operations and Ground Operations at Avianca.
