Good morning. As a new hire, you never truly know a company’s culture until you experience it firsthand. For Boeing CFO Jay Malave, it has been a little over three months—and he is ready to offer an evaluation.
After a series of aircraft malfunctions, management challenges, and a strike by more than 33,000 machinists in 2024, Boeing has seen significant changes in its executive leadership over the past year. Malave began his tenure as EVP and CFO on Aug. 15, succeeding Brian West, who served as finance chief for four years. Kelly Ortberg became Boeing’s president and CEO in August 2024.
