The Winnipeg Airports Authority (WAA) has a new boss.
The WAA named Nick Hays, most recently an executive with Vanderlande Industries — a company that deals with logistic process automation at airports — as its new president and CEO Tuesday.
Hays will take over on Feb. 21, replacing the now-retired Barry Rempel, who served in the role for almost two decades.
“There is no doubt our industry is facing unprecedented challenges due to COVID-19, but I am excited for the opportunities ahead and know WAA has the right vision and values to move the organization forward in support of our community, customers and stakeholders,” Hays said in a statement.
