Justin Keppy
Hertz has appointed Justin Keppy as its new executive vice president and chief operating officer to manage the day-to-day running of the car rental firm’s global operations.
Keppy will take up his new role with Hertz from 15 November and joins from climate and energy specialist Carrier Corporation.
Hertz CEO and chair Stephen Scherr said: “Justin is a seasoned leader with more than 25 years of operational experience in both the private sector and the US military.
“He is passionate about building high-performing teams and strong customer relationships to help drive revenue and operational efficiencies.”
Former Hertz president and chief operations officer Paul Stone stepped down from his role in September to pursue opportunities in the retail sector. Stone will remain with the company in a transitional capacity until 31 October.
These changes come a few months after Hertz CFO Alexandra Brooks took over for departing CFO Kenny Cheung.
