Air New Zealand Chief Executive Greg Foran has announced he will step down in October 2025. Chair Dame Therese Walsh said that Foran indicated to the Board his belief that the airline is well-positioned for continued growth and innovation, making it an appropriate time for him to pursue a new challenge.
Paying tribute to Foran's five-year tenure, Dame Therese said, "Greg has always displayed exceptional leadership and grit, not only guiding Air New Zealand through global aviation's most significant crisis but also maintaining the airline's tradition of innovation, strong culture, and care for our country. "
She highlighted Foran's management of significant global supply chain challenges as a notable contribution. These challenges began with Covid-19 and continue with engine issues affecting both Boeing and Airbus fleets. "While these challenges impact our operations almost daily, Greg's relentless focus and global profile have been instrumental in mitigating consequential disruptions on our customers," she said.
