James D. Hunter informed Regina Airport Authority board members this week that he plans to retire as president and CEO of Regina International (YQR) as soon as April 30, 2015.
He will serve until that date or until a successor is in place.
Hunter joined YQR in 2008 and has played a role in several upgrades, airport officials announced.
“On behalf of the authority and our entire airport community, I would like to express our sincere thanks to Jim Hunter for his dedication and leadership over almost seven years as our president and chief executive officer,” says Ken Waschuk, chairman of the authority. “Throughout Jim’s tenure, our airport operation has enjoyed a record of excellence and respect within the industry and is widely viewed as a model mid-sized Canadian airport.”
Hunter will work with the board on transitioning leadership when a successor is found.
