Former NetJets Leader Takes Job With Private Equity Firm

WCBE files

The former Berkshire Hathaway executive who earned praise from Warren Buffett while leading Columbus-based NetJets is joining a private equity firm that invests in hotels. Four months after Jordan Hansell resigned in the midst of NetJets' contract dispute with the pilots' union, he took a job as president of Rockbridge Capital. Near the end of tenure, Hansell became the focus of the union's ire in the prolonged talks.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
