Air New Zealand Executive Update: Chief Operating Officer Departure and Leadership
Transitions

Chief Operating Officer Alex Marren to depart in March 2026

Chief Operating Officer Alex Marren has today advised the airline of her decision to step down,
with her departure planned for 29 March 2026.

Ms Marren joined Air New Zealand in 2022 following a 36-year global career in operational
leadership across aviation and transport. During her time at the airline, she has played a pivotal
role in rebuilding operational performance post-Covid, introducing new tools and processes to
support frontline teams, and leading the business through several complex challenges, including
major weather events and global fleet constraints.

Chief Executive Officer Greg Foran recognised the significant contribution Alex has made to the
airline, “Alex has brought calm, clarity and deep operational expertise to our leadership team.
Her focus on safety, care for her team and commitment to improving reliability has driven
meaningful progress across our operation and led to better customer outcomes.

“We thank her for her incredible service and wish her all the very best as she transitions into
governance roles.”

The airline will work through options to replace Ms Marren over the coming months.


Jeremy O’Brien appointed Chief Customer and Digital Officer

From 20 October 2025, Jeremy O’Brien will step into the newly created role of Chief Customer
and Digital Officer (CCDO).

Jeremy has held senior leadership positions at Air New Zealand for the last nine years covering
sales, customer, loyalty, marketing and brand. He is currently acting Chief Commercial Officer.

He was previously Commercial Director at TVNZ, where he led key aspects of the broadcaster’s
content streaming and digital transformation.
