Brett Hart named president of United Airlines


Effective 20 May, Brett J. Hart, executive vice president and chief administrative officer, will be appointed president of United Airlines Holdings – a continuation of United Airlines' leadership succession plan posted in early December, in which current CEO Oscar Munoz will transition to executive chair and current president

 

Scott Kirby will become CEO after the shareholders' annual meeting on 20 May. Since joining United in 2010, Hart has taken on a variety of significant strategic responsibilities for the company at critical moments – most notably in 2015 when he served as interim CEO for six months while Munoz recovered from a heart transplant.

 

As president of United, Hart will continue to lead the company's public advocacy strategy including the government affairs, corporate communications, legal and community engagement teams.

 

He will also continue to oversee business-critical functions like the corporate real estate team and manage United's industry leading environmental sustainability efforts. His responsibilities will expand to include managing the human resources and labour relations teams. (mw)
