Brady, who was appointed CEO in June 2017, purchased the shares on Thursday at an average price of 125.90p each, for a total value of £62,950.
The Southend airport owner revealed on Wednesday that it had swung to a full-year loss, partly on the back of legal fees, but revenue rose thanks to an improvement in its two core operating businesses.
In the year to 28 February, the company swung to a loss of £58.2m from a profit of £100m the year before, while revenue rose 39% to £146.9m.
As of 1620 BST, Stobart shares had slipped 1.17% to 118p.
