Jamison served as deputy administrator of the Federal Transit Administration for the past three years, where he led the development of the agency’s risk-management strategy.
He is expected to help Hawley, who was confirmed by the Senate in July, conduct a review of TSA policies.
Jamison’s previous experience includes work as acting administrator of the Federal Railway Administration, a senior operations officer for the American Red Cross and 12 years in management with UPS.
He is expected to take his post in the coming weeks, TSA said.
