Airbus further tweaks leadership team

Care to share?

Following the recent appointment of Christian Scherer

as CEO of Airbus Commercial Aircraft, the European airframer has announced further changes to streamline leadership and shift priorities. Guillaume Faury will continue as group CEO, but he will focus on strategy and business transformation.

Airbus outlined the new leadership team from January 1 today. With Faury no longer directly responsible for Commercial Aircraft, this role will be taken up by Scherer, who has been Chief Commercial Officer.

Most other positions remain unchanged. Thierry Baril continues as Chief Human Resources Officer, Bruno Even as CEO of Airbus Helicopters, and Sabine Klauke as Chief Technology Officer. Mike Schoellhorn will continue to lead Airbus Defence and Space, Julie Kitcher as Chief Sustainability Officer and Communications, and Thomas Toepfer as Chief Financial Officer. He started only in September as the successor of Dominic Asam.
