Air New Zealand’s board has appointed three new directors. The three new appointees were selected to provide further digital, strategic and employment relations expertise to support Air New Zealand’s “revive” phase, and to support management’s objectives of prioritising people and customers and investing in digital solutions that empower customers, she said. Bayley noted that Goulter’s appointment came after Robertson sent a letter to Air New Zealand in April setting out the Government’s expectations from the airline, including an expectation to maintain domestic destinations, continue to meet environmental sustainability outcomes and to enhance its role as a leader for best work place relations.
