Maxar Technologies Inc. announced that Executive Vice President Biggs Porter intends to retire from the Company sometime in 2023 and will remain in a consulting role following his retirement through March of 2024 to assist with the transition. Porter joined Maxar Technologies in August 2018 as Executive Vice President. During his tenure, Maxar successfully monetized assets and completed an equity offering, using proceeds to reduce debt, and recently completed a refinancing that has resulted in an improved capital structure and greater financial flexibility for Maxar.

Porter also increased financial discipline and led the introduction of new financial tools and processes. Prior to Maxar, Porter spent five years as Executive Vice President and CFO at Fluor Corporation, and six years as CFO of Tenet Healthcare Corp. Earlier in his career, he held leadership positions at Raytheon, Northrop Grumman and TXU.

He was twice named one of the 100 most influential people in finance by Treasury and Risk Magazine and was named multiple times in two different industries as a leading CFO by Institutional Investor magazine, including most recently at Maxar.
