Tata Group Searching New CEO: Tata Group has started the search for new leadership for Air India as the tenure of current Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director Campbell Wilson is due to end next year. News agency PTI quoted sources as saying that Tata Group is also considering the appointment of a new Managing Director for its subsidiary Air India Express, because the tenure of the current MD Alok Singh there will be completed in 2027.
Tata Group in search of new CEO
A source close to the matter said that both Wilson and the Tata Group are not interested in renewing the contract after 2027, so it is natural to search for suitable candidates in the market for the top post of Air India. Although there was no official comment from the Tata Group in response to PTI’s queries on this subject, sources said that the process of selecting the new chief could take at least three to six months.
He also indicated that if the current and incoming chiefs work together for some time, the process of leadership transition may go more smoothly. Meanwhile, the final report on the Boeing 787-8 plane crash involving Air India is expected around June.
Air India acquisition in 2022
According to sources, Campbell Wilson was present at Tata House for a scheduled meeting on Monday. It is noteworthy that Wilson was appointed CEO and MD of Air India in July 2022, whereas earlier in March 2022, former Turkish Airlines Chairman Ilker Ayci had refused to take up this post due to controversy. Tata Group had acquired Air India from the government in January 2022.
