Celebrating 25 Years of Teamwork at JFK

Celebrating 25 Years of Teamwork at JFK

At UTC, we take great pride in the exceptional team members who contribute to our success. We are especially fortunate to celebrate an anniversary in our JFK office as Marian Clare, Kyle O'Connor, Norma Sanchez, and Janet Amadeo are all marking 25 years. Through their hard work and dedication, this team established and built the JFK office and is responsible for its continued growth.

How it began

This fabulous group of four worked together at ACS (Airport Clearing Services) before coming to UTC. Brian Posthumus reflects on his smart decision to hire this team when UTC purchased ACS, “The dedication these four people have to one another and UTC is remarkable. They are the true embodiment of loyalty and teamwork that has propelled our JFK office into a powerhouse and set a lasting example of what it means to be part of the UTC family. They have a synergy about them that compliments each other. Their collective 100 years of service is a testament to their unwavering commitment, and I want to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude for their contributions.”

Building success together

What is truly special about this group is not just their work ethic, but their unwavering commitment to each other. Remembering the early years, Marian states, “Since coming to UTC, none of us have ever looked back. For 25 years, we worked alongside each other, supporting, helping, learning and growing together - we have become a family. We care about each other, we trust each other, and we are there for each other. We bring our own special qualities to the job and when we put them together, we are unstoppable. We have had our good and bad moments, but mostly we have had great moments, and our success comes from working as a team. Teamwork makes the dream work!”

Diana Davila works closely with the JFK office and comments, “They consistently support one another, a testament to their strong teamwork and camaraderie. As Steve Jobs once said, ‘Great things in business are never done by one person; they’re done by a team of people.’ Over the past 25 years, this team has exemplified this truth by consistently delivering excellence and embodying the values that make UTC Overseas a leader in our industry,”

Their lasting legacy

In addition to their remarkable tenure, Marian, Kyle, Norma, and Janet have been instrumental in passing on their knowledge and experience to the next generation of the UTC team. Their mentorship has been vital in ensuring that the values of hard work and dedication, the cornerstones of their office, are passed down.

As we celebrate this milestone, we honor them not only for their professional achievements but also for the values they represent — teamwork, loyalty, and commitment.
