  • Australia's flagship carrier, Qantas Airways Ltd named finance chief Vanessa Hudson as its next chief executive officer, making her the first woman to lead the century-old airline.

  • Joyce was appointed Qantas CEO in 2008 and agreed in 2020 to remain at the helm through the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Hudson joined Qantas 28 years ago and has held several senior roles there, including CFO, chief customer officer and senior vice president for the Americas and New Zealand.
