About
Rob Sharp is the Chief Executive Officer of Airservices Australia. He recently met with the Transport Minister, Catherine King, following an "unacceptable" near-miss collision incident at Sydney airport. This incident involved a Jetstar plane narrowly avoiding a collision with a Qantas plane, leading to two workers being temporarily stood down. The minister has mandated improved staff rostering from the following month. Sharp's role at Airservices Australia places him at the center of investigations and operational improvements aimed at enhancing safety and efficiency within Australia's air traffic control and aviation services, particularly in light of recent runway incursions and near-misses at major airports like Sydney.
