Aer Lingus Group PLC (EIL1.DB) said Monday that it has appointed Andrew Macfarlane, who has been the Irish budget airline's interim chief financial officer since December 2009, as its CFO, effective immediately.

Before joining Aer Lingus, Macfarlane was CFO at U.K. pest control and cleaning group Rentokil Initial PLC (RTO.LN). He has also been CFO at Land Securities Group PLC (LAND.LN), the U.K's largest real-estate investment trust, and Intercontinental Hotels Group PLC's (IHG) Holiday Inn.

Since joining as the company's interim CFO, Macfarlane has been "instrumental in addressing the key challenges faced by Aer Lingus," Chief Executive Christoph Mueller said in a statement.

Chairman Colm Barrington said Macfarlane, 53, has "already made valuable contributions to Aer Lingus at board level in his capacity as interim CFO and we look forward to his continued and future input towards building the future success of Aer Lingus."
