ALGIERS- Since assuming the role of CEO of Air Algérie in February, Hamza Benhamouda has wasted no time in restructuring the leadership of the national carrier, following the departure of Yacine Benslimane. Under his leadership, several changes and dismissals have taken place within the top management of the airline.
Today, Benhamouda made significant changes to the company’s leadership. These changes come as part of an initiative to breathe new life into the national airline. Consequently, many executives and senior officials have been dismissed from their positions and responsibilities.
Among the notable appointments, Bouzghaia Abdelaziz has been appointed Secretary General, replacing Ait Abdelmalek Sofiane. Additionally, former Air Algérie Communications Manager, Amine Andaloussi, now serves as acting Brand Director.
Further changes include the removal of Yacine Amiar from the position of Air Algérie’s Commercial Director. Meanwhile, Bejaoui Chaouche Souad, formerly Director of Customer Relations, now assumes the role of the company’s Commercial Director.
Continuing the reshuffling of leadership positions, Hamza Benhamouda has decided to dismiss Allali Mohamed Ali from his role as Director of Operations Division. Furthermore, Kouah Hassina has been selected as the new Deputy Director of Operations.
In a final move, Benhamouda appointed Boutemadja Sami as the new Director of Imports, replacing Faidi Fouad.
