Aviation: Internal or external – who will run Lufthansa Technik in the future?
The maintenance subsidiary regularly saves the group's balance sheet. The CEO is retiring in January. One candidate has a good chance of being appointed successor on Friday.
Lufthansa Technik, a subsidiary of the Lufthansa Group, is set to appoint Harald Gloy as its new CEO. Gloy, a 54-year-old engineer, has been with the company since 1999 and currently serves as Chief Operating Officer. He is expected to take over the top position at LHT in early 2024, succeeding Sören Stark who is retiring. Gloy's appointment was reportedly favored by Lufthansa CEO Carsten Spohr and Technikvorständin Grazia Vittadini, despite some discussions about an external candidate.
LHT is a major player in the aviation maintenance industry, servicing one in five commercial aircraft worldwide.
