Busan Transportation Corporation Appoints Lee Sangon as New Head of Management Support Division

Served in key positions spanning finance, accounting and transportation

Three-year term begins on October 26; oversees station operations and administration

Busan Transportation Corporation has appointed an in-house expert with extensive experience in key positions in station operations and administration as head of its Management Support Division, as it moves to address pressing management issues.

Busan Transportation Corporation announced on October 26 that it had appointed Lee Sangon, former head of the Management Support Office, as its new head of the Management Support Division. His three-year term begins on October 26. The division head is a standing executive director overseeing station operations and administration.

Lee joined the corporation in 1999 as part of its ninth open recruitment cohort. He built practical experience and expertise across the corporation's operations, including finance and accounting, organizational affairs, new businesses, and transportation. Starting as head of sales management and then sales planning in the Sales Office (now the Passenger Business Office), he went on to serve in key positions, including head of the Sales Office, head of the Accounting Office (now the Accounting and Asset Office), and head of the Management Support Office.

Lee served as both a division head and an office head in transportation-related departments. He also held a range of department head positions under the division, earning a reputation for his understanding of both field operations and administration. The corporation expects him to draw on this experience to demonstrate expertise in management support and lead innovative management.

"Having worked across various areas of the corporation since I was a front-line employee, I know its situation better than anyone," Lee said. "The management environment facing the corporation is challenging, but I will draw on my experience and work with its employees to navigate it wisely."

Kim Taeho, president of Busan Transportation Corporation, said, "Given the urgency of the corporation's management issues, we have appointed an in-house candidate with strong expertise in field operations and administration. We will further raise the corporation's management standards by drawing on Lee's proven expertise."
