Restructure of QF Group Management Committee sees major changes including return of separate International and Domestic CEOs.
Former Air New Zealand senior executive Cam Wallace has just been announced as the new CEO of Qantas International and Freight.
Wallace will step into the role effective 01 July, when the Qantas Domestic and International CEO positions will once again be separated, after being combined during the pandemic under the leadership of Andrew David.
David will retire from the Qantas Group in September this year, with a recruitment process to fill the CEO of Qantas Domestic to commence shortly.
QF Group CEO Alan Joyce said “at the start of the pandemic, we rationalised the two CEO roles for Qantas Domestic and Qantas International down to one, given what was happening to our business”.
“With Andrew retiring, and given the amount of investment now in the pipeline, it makes sense to again have separate CEOs for the International and Domestic businesses, which are both back to generating billions in revenue each year”.
“The Qantas Group has always been able to attract top talent and Cam Wallace is one of the best airline executives in the region,” Joyce added.
