Coyle has worked for the airport transfers and mobility firm for the past seven years latterly as senior vice-president global sales.
He takes over from Peter Hilton, who stood down as chief executive in March.
In his past roles, Coyle has headed up the firm’s global source market and regional expansion into China, the wider Asian markets, Gulf territories and the Americas.
His promotion comes with immediate effect and sees him working closely with Sir Colin Chandler, who will revert to his position as deputy chairman.
