“These appointments demonstrate our ability to identify and develop talent within the business while broadening diversity and experience,” said NAB group chief executive Andrew Irvine (far left in picture).
“Rachel, Ana and Cath, who will lead NAB’s customer-facing businesses in Australia, are great relationship bankers who inspire their teams to deliver results for customers. They understand the importance of using technology and data to make NAB easier and simpler to bank with.
“This completes the executive leadership team that will take NAB forward and maintain the momentum we have across the business by executing with discipline and focus.”
The restructured executive leadership team, pending regulatory approval, will include Irvine and 10 other executives, namely Slade, Marinkovic, Carver, Sharon Cook, Shaun Dooley, Nathan Goonan, Dan Huggins, Les Matheson, Sarah White, and Patrick Wright.
