Bromberg, who succeeds Marc Parent, will join CAE effective June 16 as incoming president and CEO, working closely with Parent throughout the transition and will also be a nominee for election to the board at the upcoming annual and special meeting of shareholders, said the company.

Since 2022, Bromberg has headed global operations for Northrop Grumman Corporation (NOC), located in Falls Church, Virginia. He also served as president of military engines at RTX (RTX) (formerly Raytheon Technologies Corp) from 2017 to 2022.

The company also announced that Calin Rovinescu will be appointed executive chairman of the board and that Sophie Brochu will serve as lead independent director, after the 2025 annual and special meeting of shareholders, subject to their election to the board.

Rovinescu was appointed to the board on February 14 and is the former president and CEO of Montreal-based Air Canada (AC.TO). Brochu is the former president and CEO of Hydro-Quebec.

"Matthew Bromberg is a proven leader with deep experience in both aerospace and defence, involving large-scale international operations," said Rovinescu. "His appointment is the result of a rigorous global selection process, and along with the entire Board, I am absolutely confident that CAE's future will be bright with Mr. Bromberg at the helm, working together with the exceptionally talented leadership team that is in place at CAE. It will be a pleasure to work alongside him as I take on the role of Executive Chairman."
