SriLankan defends appointment of new CCO

27 Apr 2019

SriLankan Airlines has defended the appointment of its new Chief Commercial Officer (CCO). In response to an article which appeared in The Sunday Morning newspaper last week, SriLankan Airlines said that it is an international airline that operates throughout Asia and the Middle East, which are highly competitive and rapidly developing regions in the global air transport industry. SriLankan is currently going through an important phase in its 39-year history, while simultaneously fulfilling its obligations as the national flag carrier of Sri Lanka. The flag carrier said it sought to select an individual with a proven track record of qualifications and experience to develop and lead its commercial operations. In particular, the new CCO would play a pivotal role in executing the five-year strategic business plan that has been formulated by the management. The restructuring initiatives and broad elements of the aforementioned business plan were shared publicly a few weeks ago. “The opportunity was provided for qualified and experienced staff members of SriLankan Airlines, any other Sri Lankans outside of the airline, and foreign candidates to apply for the post. The interviews and selection of the candidates were conducted according to the airline’s professional recruitment methodology under the guidance of the board of directors, with equal opportunities given to each candidate to demonstrate their skills and experience,” the airline said. SriLankan said that it is an accepted practice in the global air transport industry to source candidates with international expertise and a sound track record when recruiting candidates for top management positions. SriLankan Airlines said that it has traditionally been the practice at SriLankan Airlines to source new members of the senior management team from both Sri Lanka and overseas, especially so in the commercial area. In the past, several persons with international experience have held the post of CCO at the flag carrier.
