Osborne New Planning Director at ROA

The Roanoke Regional Airport Commission says this week that Richard Osborne will take over as the director of planning and engineering for the Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport (ROA), where he will lead and manage the department of planning and engineering, as well as the airport operations team.

Osborne brings more than 26 years of airport leadership experience to his new role, most recently as the director of aviation planning with Parrish and Partners, a full-service transportation consulting firm.

“We are very happy to have someone with Richard’s background and experience join the team as we continue to work to be the airport of choice for Southwestern Virginia,” says Tim Bradshaw, ROA executive director. “With several key projects either in process or set to begin in 2020, we are fortunate to have Richard and his team manage them.”

Osborne was hired following a national search conducted by ADK Consulting & Executive Search, a retained executive search firm.
