A major bank has announced the resignation of its chief operating officer.
Antony Cahill, who has worked at NAB for the last eight years, will leave his role in mid-September. He will return to the UK with his family to take up a senior executive position with VISA based in London.
NAB CEO Andrew Thorburn thanked Cahill for his service, which included four years as a member of the executive leadership team.
He said, “It has been a pleasure to work with Antony over the four years he has been on our executive leadership team.
“He has made a significant contribution to the bank, and his leadership in product management, customer journeys and with NAB Labs and NAB Ventures are worthy of special mention.
“While I am disappointed to lose Antony from NAB and as a colleague, I totally understand his reasons for accepting this opportunity in the UK.
“I wish Antony and his family well, and thank him for his service at NAB over the past eight years.”
Cahill said he was proud to have been part of the NAB team.
He added, “NAB is a stronger, more customer-focussed bank as a result of the work that has been done in recent years. That work continues and, under Andrew’s leadership, NAB is on the right path to rebuild trust and respect among customers and the community.”
Cahill’s last day with NAB will be Friday 14 September 2018.
NAB’s executive general manager deposits & transaction services, Rachel Slade, has been appointed acting group executive customer products & services.
Slade’s appointment is effective immediately, to enable a smooth transition, subject to any applicable regulatory approvals and registration requirements.
Thorburn said, “I am delighted to ask Rachel to take on this role while I consider next steps.”
