Forging the Future of Air Cargo through strategic vision and operational excellence.
Get in touchAt SkyForge, we are aviation experts who believe in the power of connection — between people, processes, and ambitions.
Founded by Jelle Declerck and Mathieu Sérafimoff, we bring together strong experience across strategic leadership, operational management, and logistics development within the European air cargo sector.
We are not just advisors. We are builders, connectors, and catalysts. SkyForge exists to strengthen the air cargo industry by helping organizations grow stronger, faster, and smarter — from the ground up and the top down.
SkyForge Consulting offers two powerful lines of service to meet the evolving needs of the air cargo sector:
We optimize and future-proof your operational footprint. Whether it's reorganizing station structures, designing and implementing warehouse layouts, enhancing ramp operations, developing safety and compliance frameworks, or leading multi-station process harmonizations, we deliver hands-on solutions that elevate performance.
Our approach is pragmatic, resilient, and tailored to ensure operational continuity while setting new standards of excellence.
We drive growth and transformation at the highest level. From shaping market entry strategies and strengthening key account management to navigating regulatory landscapes and advocating in sector-wide forums, we empower your organization to lead with clarity and confidence.
We specialize in building industry partnerships, developing tailored service products, and turning complex challenges into tangible commercial advantages.
Our services are never "one-size-fits-all". At SkyForge, we forge customized strategies and then stay to execute them alongside you, ensuring that every plan becomes a reality.
We believe that the air cargo sector deserves partners who truly understand its complexity, its challenges, and its opportunities. SkyForge was founded on a clear insight: the best results happen when strategic vision and operational execution are forged together.
Far too often, companies are left balancing theoretical advice against daily operational pressures. We bridge that gap by offering actionable strategies that integrate seamlessly into your reality — strategies that mobilize your teams, streamline your processes, and secure your competitive edge.
In a fast-evolving industry shaped by regulatory changes, technological advancements, and shifting global demands, we are your trusted vanguard — keeping you resilient, agile, and ahead of the curve.
SkyForge draws its strength from two complementary career paths forged within major industry players:
With a background rooted in diplomacy and strategic relations, Jelle brings a unique perspective to the commercial development of air cargo businesses.
Having worked in leadership roles at Aviapartner Cargo, he combines sharp commercial acumen, regulatory insight, and a strong sense of stakeholder engagement to drive sustainable growth.
An operational leader with hands-on experience at Swissport and Aviapartner Cargo, Mathieu brings deep expertise in warehouse and ramp operations, process design, and facility optimization.
His strong roots in established local ground handling agents (GHAs) have shaped his pragmatic, high-impact approach to operational improvement.
Together, we embody a holistic understanding of air cargo realities — from ground operations to strategic leadership. Our combined background enables us to forge stronger futures for organizations ready to move beyond today's challenges.
