Apr. 14--Another well-known Walt Disney World executive has left the company.
Jerry Montgomery, most recently the senior vice president of conservation and environmental sustainability for Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, said Monday he accepted one of the voluntary buyouts Disney offered its domestic-park executives in January.
The buyouts were in addition to roughly 900 layoffs Disney has made in Florida this year as part of widespread cost-cutting. Disney has also eliminated about 500 open jobs in the state.
Montgomery, 51, spent 30 years with Disney, including stints in human resources and public affairs, where he was frequently quoted as a spokesman for the company. He began his career checking in campers at Disney's Fort Wilderness.
He has served on several appointed boards through the years, including current terms on the governing bodies of the South Florida Water Management District and United Arts of Central Florida. He will keep both board seats.
