As President and Chief Executive Officer of FedEx Corporation, Raj Subramaniam leads one of the world’s largest transportation and logistics companies. A more than 30-year FedEx veteran, Subramaniam became the second CEO in the company’s history in 2022 after serving in a series of leadership roles across the global enterprise, including as President and Chief Operating Officer.
