With the impending retirement of longtime GCI executive Paul Landes, Maureen McCabe Moore is taking on the leadership for the company’s overall consumer business. Landes, a twenty-six-year veteran of the Anchorage-based telecom company, had been general manager for consumer services. “Paul’s vision and leadership have been instrumental in shaping GCI’s consumer business into what it is today,” says GCI President and COO Greg Chapados.
Landes is remaining with the company through 2026, continuing his role as Senior Vice President through the transition while Moore takes on his responsibilities.
Moore was promoted to Senior Vice President and Chief Customer Experience Officer in 2024, in charge of reviewing company strategy through the lens of GCI customers. Moore began her career at GCI in 1997 as Advertising Manager.
