Jude Scott has resigned as the chairman of the board of Cayman Airways, officials announced on Wednesday evening.
In a press release, the Ministry of Tourism and Transport stated that it had “regrettably” accepted Scott’s resignation.
The release said Scott had formally notified Minister of Tourism and Transport Kenneth Bryan on Monday, 22 Aug., of his resignation, with immediate effect.
Scott, the former chief executive officer of Cayman Finance, was appointed to the post on the Cayman Airways board of directors in September last year.
The ministry said that a new chair would be appointed next week.
In the interim, the board’s deputy chairman, John-Paul Clarke, will serve as acting chairman until the new appointment has been confirmed, the ministry said.
“It saddens me to accept Mr. Scott’s resignation, as the Ministry and Cayman Airways have benefited greatly from his insights and dedication,” said Bryan said in the release. “I wish to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Scott for his leadership and guidance during his tenure, and wish him every success in his future endeavours.”
The release did not give a reason for Scott’s resignation.
This had been his second time serving as chairman of the national airline’s board. He was first appointed in 2009.
