LONDON, May 26 (Reuters) - British low cost airline easyJet
said chief financial officer Andrew Findlay will leave
the company in May 2021, and it had started the search for his
successor.
Findlay, who joined easyJet as CFO in 2015, on Friday
survived an attempt by the airline's founder to oust him, the
chief executive, the chairman and another director.
EasyJet said on Tuesday that Findlay has advised the board
of his intention to leave and in line with his contractual
obligations is expected to stay on for a year.
CEO Johan Lundgren praised Findlay for his efforts in
helping to shore up easyJet's balance sheet during the
coronavirus crisis, as the airline battles to keep costs down at
a time when its planes are grounded.
