Embraer announced that Andreza de Souza Alberto, current director of operations at Embraer’s Gavião Peixoto (SP) unit, will be the new vice president of People, ESG and Corporate Communications. The current vice president of the area, Carlos Alberto Griner, announced in December his decision to leave the company. The change becomes effective on 1 February.
With 17 years of experience at Embraer, Alberto holds a degree in mechatronics engineering, with specialisation courses in management at Fundação Dom Cabral and governance at IBGC. At the company, she currently leads the Gavião Peixoto (SP) unit, which has more than 2,000 employees and is mainly dedicated to the production of defence aircraft and executive jets. Previously, she worked as a production manager and manufacturing engineering supervisor, with a strong focus on people management, safety and quality, process improvements and Lean implementation.
“Andreza is a great leader of people, and a professional focused on results and the constant search for efficiency. Her skills are fully aligned with the new organisational culture we are implementing at the company,” said Francisco Gomes Neto, President and CEO of Embraer. “I am sure that she will continue the ongoing transformation in the area and will challenge us to accelerate the actions and processes aimed at managing people, our environment, health and safety.”
Griner, who announced his decision to leave the company in December, has led the area for the last five and a half years. “I thank Griner once again for all his contributions in transforming the People’s area, and I wish him much success in his new career phase,” said Neto.
