While Philip Eckles may only have been the CEO of Delhi Duty-Free Services since the beginning of October last year, he’s known about the company for years. “One of my previous roles was as CEO of Aer Rianta International (ARI) Middle East division, which is based out of Bahrain. ARI is one of the shareholders of Delhi Duty-Free Services, and I had the pleasure of sitting on the board of directors for a five-year period. So I knew Delhi Duty-Free Services very well,” Philip explains. “My role with ARI was changing and as the HQ is in Dublin, Ireland, there was a chance I would need to relocate there. However, the opportunity to take over as CEO at Delhi Duty-Free Services came up and I saw it as the perfect time to join this fast-growing company. Plus, India is such an exciting country and the company is one of the leading duty-free operations in Asia, as well as the largest in India. It was a wonderful opportunity that I couldn’t let pass me by.”
As he gets ready to wrap up his first year with Delhi Duty-Free Services, Philip has had the opportunity to look back on all that they’ve achieved over the 12 months. “I was lucky to inherit a wonderful team of high calibre and professional people,” he says. “It’s helped us have a very successful financial year. Obviously, I can’t take all the credit, as a lot of this success is down to the hard work and dedication of the team before I took over as CEO. A huge part of my task now is, of course, to make sure that all the good work that has gone before me continues into the future.”
