Update on Chief Customer and Sales Officer
After 20 years at the airline, Air New Zealand Chief Customer and Sales Officer Leanne
Geraghty is stepping down from her role, effective January 2025. She will be returning to
Australia to spend time with her family.
Leanne joined the airline in 2004, holding a number of roles in Australia, before relocating to
New Zealand in 2016. In 2020, she took up the role of Chief Customer and Sales Officer.
Throughout her tenure, Leanne has achieved significant milestones, including being a key part
of the successful market launches of New York, Houston, Chicago, Taipei, Seoul, and Buenos
Aires, as well as leading our global sales efforts. Her leadership has also seen the appointment
of a new uniform designer, the implementation of numerous brand and marketing campaigns,
and the production of multiple safety videos. She has been instrumental in fostering strong
relationships across the tourism and travel industry and enhancing the overall customer
experience.
Air New Zealand Chief Executive Officer Greg Foran said Leanne’s contribution to the airline
over the past two decades has been immense, and she will be deeply missed by the wider Air
New Zealand whānau.
"Leanne has been an invaluable part of our team, and her contributions have been pivotal in
shaping the airline's success over the past 20 years. She has been an exceptional leader and
team member at Air New Zealand. Leanne puts our customers, people and partners at the
heart of every decision, and we have been incredibly lucky to have her as an ambassador for
the airline for such a long time.”
The process to fill her position will commence shortly.
This announcement is made pursuant to Listing Rule 3.20.1.
Ends.
