Auckland and London-based aviation compliance platform OneReg has appointed New Zealand Airports Association Chief Executive Billie Moore to a newly created international leadership role focused on government affairs, regulatory relations and public policy.
Moore will become OneReg’s Chief Regulatory and Industry Engagement Officer, strengthening the company’s collaboration with civil aviation authorities, airport operators, airlines and public sector stakeholders across its expanding global markets.
The appointment arrives as airports and airlines face increasing pressure to manage safety, compliance, sustainability and operational efficiency through more connected digital systems. For the wider travel industry, effective regulatory oversight is essential because it supports reliable airport operations, reduces disruption risks and helps aviation businesses respond to increasingly complex requirements.
OneReg provides an integrated aviation compliance platform designed to give operational teams greater visibility across regulatory assurance, safety management, hazard reporting, risk management, document control and incident management.
New Leadership Role Strengthens Regulatory Engagement
Moore’s newly established position reflects OneReg’s focus on connecting aviation technology with government policy and industry priorities.
Her responsibilities will include engagement with regulators, public authorities and aviation organizations across multiple international markets. The role is expected to support stronger alignment between regulatory requirements and the day-to-day realities faced by airports and airlines.
This approach matters as aviation operations become increasingly interconnected. Airports must manage passenger growth, security requirements, infrastructure upgrades, climate-related pressures and operational risks. Airlines must also meet complex safety, reporting and compliance standards while maintaining efficient schedules and improving the traveler experience.
Digital platforms can help simplify those processes by bringing information together in one place and providing teams with real-time operational insights.
Billie Moore Brings Airport and Government Experience
Moore brings extensive aviation, diplomatic and public policy experience to OneReg.
As Chief Executive of the New Zealand Airports Association, she represents 49 airports across the country and works closely with government departments, regulators and industry partners. Her leadership has included engagement on operational resilience, aviation safety and sustainability issues affecting airports of different sizes.
Her previous experience also includes senior roles in foreign affairs, trade, environmental policy and tourism-related government relations. She has served as an adviser to New Zealand ministers, worked as Chief Advisor at the Ministry for the Environment and held diplomatic responsibilities as Consul General to New South Wales and Queensland.
This combination of airport knowledge and government experience positions Moore to help OneReg navigate regulatory environments across Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle East and other international aviation markets.
Series A Funding Supports OneReg Expansion
The appointment follows OneReg’s oversubscribed USD $4.5 million Series A funding round, which provides additional resources for product development, international expansion and collaboration with aviation stakeholders.
As airports and airlines adopt more digital systems, compliance technology is becoming increasingly important. Traditional processes can involve disconnected spreadsheets, paper-heavy reporting systems and multiple platforms that make it harder for teams to maintain a clear view of operational risk.
OneReg aims to replace fragmented processes with a connected system that allows aviation organizations to monitor compliance requirements, track risks and improve reporting efficiency.
For passengers, these systems often operate behind the scenes. However, they can influence important aspects of the travel experience, including airport reliability, safety management, disruption response and service quality.
Airport and Airline Technology Gains Importance
The aviation sector is entering a period of rapid transformation as passenger demand grows and airports invest in infrastructure, technology and sustainability measures.
Airports must coordinate thousands of operational activities every day, ranging from airfield inspections and safety procedures to terminal management and emergency planning. Airlines must also maintain rigorous regulatory standards while operating across multiple jurisdictions.
A connected compliance platform can help aviation organizations identify risks earlier, improve transparency and reduce the administrative burden placed on operational teams.
Moore’s appointment strengthens OneReg’s ability to work directly with regulators and industry associations as these requirements evolve. It also supports a broader shift toward risk-based oversight, where real-time data and operational insights help decision-makers focus on areas requiring the greatest attention.
Global Aviation Strategy Supports Travel Growth
OneReg’s expansion has wider implications for tourism and international travel.
Reliable aviation infrastructure supports destination growth, hotel demand, business travel and regional connectivity. When airports and airlines improve operational efficiency, travelers can benefit from smoother journeys and stronger network performance.
Moore’s appointment gives OneReg a senior leader with experience connecting aviation, government and tourism priorities. Her role will help the company deepen relationships with regulators while supporting airport and airline customers across diverse international markets.
As global air travel continues to grow, the aviation industry will need systems that make compliance more transparent, efficient and responsive. OneReg’s latest appointment signals a clear focus on building that connected future while strengthening the regulatory foundations that support safe and reliable travel.
