BOB MURPHY APPOINTED PRESIDENT OF BAE SYSTEMS LAND & ARMAMENTS GROUP
BAE Systems today announces the appointment of Bob Murphy as President of BAE
Systems Land & Armaments. He succeeds Linda Hudson, who was recently appointed
President and CEO of BAE Systems, Inc. Bob will also serve on BAE Systems'
Executive Committee.
In his previous role as Executive Vice President, Land & Armaments Operating
Group, Bob was responsible for the execution and delivery of customer
requirements, financial commitments, and continuous improvement of the
operations within Land & Armaments.
Linda Hudson said: "Bob brings a wealth of knowledge and skills in both
financial and operational management from his time in the defence and aerospace
industry. He has an established track record in BAE Systems, having served as
CFO for our U.S. business, as well as in operational roles. With his recent
experience leading the Land & Armaments lines of business, I am confident that
he is best placed to take forward the Land & Armaments group. As we face
challenging times ahead, he will continue to deliver our global Land strategy in
support of our customers."
Bob has served as Executive Vice President of the Land & Armaments Operating
Group since November 2008 and has been Acting President since Linda Hudson's
move to President and CEO of BAE Systems, Inc.
