Following changes and simplification at the EADS organisational structure, Tom Enders, previously Co-CEO of EADS, has been nominated CEO of Airbus SAS, reporting to the sole CEO of EADS, Louis Gallois. He will be supported by Fabrice Bregier, who remains COO of Airbus.
In his new position as CEO of Airbus, Tom Enders will specifically continue the implementation of Power8, a far-reaching restructuring programme aimed at turning around the company. With a large number of activities already on-going and beginning to bear fruit, Power8 will ensure the future competitive position of Airbus.
