Pattrick Smellie: BusinessDesk editor on former MediaWorks CEO Cam Wallace joining Qantas

Former MediaWorks CEO Cam Wallace will join Qantas as group chief executive of Qantas international and freight. His new job will pit him against former employer Air New Zealand, whom he worked with for two decades prior to MediaWorks. BusinessDesk editor Pattrick Smellie says that Air New Zealand would have expected Cam Wallace to return to the aviation industry, as he only left the company in a wave of resignations during Covid-19. Pattrick Smellie says Cam Wallace was a contender for the title of CEO after Chris Luxon left, but lost the role to Greg Foran. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
