Statement From Airservices Australia Acting Board Chair Anne Brown

I am pleased to announce the appointment of Rob Sharp as Interim CEO of Airservices. His appointment reflects the Board’s recognition of the value that an expert, external perspective can bring in progressing the challenges and opportunities presented by Airservices’ significant business transformation programme.

Rob will commence with the organisation on Monday 29 July 2024 and joins with over 30 years of senior executive management and CEO experience. 

His familiarity with high reliability and safety critical industries including air transport, construction, energy and technology ensures he brings an advantageous mix of customer, strategy, operational and transformative thinking to lead and support Airservices’ strategic priorities.

The global recruitment process for a permanent CEO will continue over the coming months.

The Board would like to thank Pete Curran for his interim stewardship as the Acting CEO. Pete will take up the role of Deputy CEO from 29 July 2024.
