The Reno-Tahoe Airport Authority (RTAA) Board will conduct a national search to hire a new President/CEO after President/CEO Marily Mora’s November announcement that she will retire June 30.
In a special meeting, the RTAA Board unanimously voted to conduct a national search to replace Mora. She has served as President/CEO for 6.5 years. Mora has helped lead an air service renaissance since she was named CEO in July, 2013.
Prior to serving as CEO, Mora was the Assistant Director of Aviation for Oakland International Airport and served as Chief Operating Officer at RNO for 12 years before moving to Oakland in 2011.
Mora also spent 11 years at Mineta San Jose International Airport.
“It has been an honor and privilege to serve as CEO of the Reno-Tahoe Airport Authority,” Mora said. “I am most proud of the organizational culture we have created and how we move our customers through clean, safe and secure facilities. We have added excellent air service and taken a leadership role in the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) industry.”
A timetable and details of the search process will be worked out in the coming weeks.
