Private carrier Jet Airways on Tuesday said it had appointed former Suzlon senior executive Amit Agarwal as its Chief Financial Officer (CFO).
Mr Agarwal’s appointment is effective Tuesday, the airline said. Jet Airways did not have a fulltime CFO since March 2014, when the then incumbent Ravishankar Gopalakrishnan, who was also the acting chief executive officer, parted ways with the airline.
Significantly, Mr Agarwal’s appointment also comes days after Crammer Ball stepped down as the CEO to join Italian airline Alitalia as its chief executive.
“I am delighted that Amit Agarwal has joined Jet Airways as Chief Financial Officer and a key member of our operating committee,” Jet Airways Chairman Naresh Goyal said in a release.
Mr Agarwal is a seasoned finance professional with knowledge and insights of Indian and international markets, Mr Goyal said. — PTI
