About Moya Greene

Dame Moya Marguerite Greene is a Canadian businesswoman who was the chief executive officer (CEO) of the Royal Mail from 2010 until 2018, having previously been the CEO of Canada Post. The result was a trebling of Canada Post's profits to C$281 million (£183 million), despite a 5.1 per cent drop in revenues, resulting in a two-year extension to her original five-year contract. Her total compensation for 2012/13 was reported by the Royal Mail as £3.7 million.
