The Raleigh-Durham Airport Authority (Authority) is undertaking a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure expansion program while also operating and maintaining aging infrastructure.

Work collaboratively with senior leadership to gain a clear, organization-wide perspective and establish a framework that aligns resources, talent, and processes with our growth trajectory. 3. Focus on enhancing operational efficiency, accelerating project delivery, and establishing the organizational framework required to meet growing customer demands. 4.
