Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti has announced the launch ofa global executive search to fill the the top post at the Port of Los Angeles.
Under mayor Garcetti’s direction, the Los Angeles Board of Harbour Commissioners has established an ad hoc search committee to oversee the process, which is comprised of Harbour Commission president Vilma Martinez and Commission vice-president David Arian.
“The Port of Los Angeles is a critical economic driver of our region and plays a central role in LA’s reputation as a global city and leading Pacific Rim trade gateway,” said Garcetti. “We are seeking a highly experienced and dynamic leader with a strong track record of success – a true collaborator and visionary who can lead the port’s growth and international trade efforts in the years ahead.”
