London City Airport seeks CEO
London City Airport has begun the search for a new CEO after Declan Collier announced he was standing down.
A statement from the airport said an international recruitment firm has been appointed to undertake a search for a new CEO and Collier would be helping to find his successor.
Collier said: "As we embark on the next phase of the airport’s development I feel it is the right time to transition to new leadership and I look forward to assisting the chairman to secure my successor and continuing to work with the leadership team until a new CEO starts."
Chairman Sir Terry Morgan paid tribute to Collier, who has been CEO since March 2012.
"Under Declan’s leadership, London City Airport has developed strong and wide ranging relationships across the aviation sector, with all levels of government- nationally, in London, and locally, and with our local communities.
"The airport has delivered significant growth in passenger numbers and earnings which in turn has stimulated economic activity across the local and London economy."
