INGLIS Lyon is stepping down from Highlands and Islands Airports Limited (HIAL) after 18 years in the company.
The managing director announced his intention to step down from the role this summer, where he currently manages 11 regional airports including Inverness.
He said: “I have been very fortunate to meet and work with superb colleagues across the company, numerous HIAL Board members, government officials and ministers and local community partners.
"However, after 18 years’ service, I’ve reached that time of life when it is time to pass the baton on and give someone the opportunity to hold the keys to what I consider to be the best job in the Highlands and Islands and take HIAL to the next level.”
Inglis added: “I have worked with a fantastic team throughout my time at HIAL. I could not be prouder of my colleagues and their commitment to their communities, particularly during the pandemic when amongst much uncertainty they didn’t miss a beat and lifeline services continued."
Speaking on behalf of the HIAL Board, Chair Lorna Jack said: “We wish Inglis well as he prepares for the next chapter in his life. He leaves a very capable senior management team and the HIAL Board is now focussed on recruiting the next person to lead the organisation.”
