The mandate of Belgian Christian Heinzmann, appointed in November last year for four years, was cut short to one year by Tarom’s board of directors, led by Dan Pascariu.
The Belgian manager’s mandate expires on November 19 and that of Financial Officer, Michael Moriaty also expires in November.
Contacted by ZF, Dan Pascariu said the October 29 meeting of the board of directors had decided to start the recruitment of a new CEO.
Less than a year after the introduction of private management at Tarom, the company is looking for its third general manager after Dan Pascariu cut short the mandate of Belgian Christian Heinzmann by three years.
The first candidate to be chosen as Tarom’s CEO as part of the “private management for a state-run company” was Austrian Heinrich Vytoupil, in October last year. But he did not even sign the contract, for unknown reasons.
