Boeing has appointed Conrad Chun as vice president of communications for Boeing Commercial Airplanes, effective immediately.
Chun most recently served as vice president of communications for Boeing Global Services where he was responsible for media relations, employee and executive communications.
Previously, Chun served as director of communications for global services & support and Boeing military aircraft, both of which were divisions of Boeing defense, space & security.
In his new role, Chun will continue reporting to Anne Toulouse, senior vice president of communications, and Stan Deal, president and CEO of Boeing commercial airplanes.
Commenting on the appointment, Toulouse said: "Stan and I are confident in Conrad's abilities to help us prepare to safely return the 737 MAX to service and continue to drive progress across our commercial airplanes business."
Chun succeeds Linda Mills, who announced she will be leaving the company.
"We thank Linda for her many contributions and wish her all the best in the future," Toulouse added.
Alexa Marrero, current director of communications operations for Boeing global services, will serve as interim head of communications for Boeing global services until a permanent replacement is selected.
