NAB Executive Cathryn Carver has today been appointed as Chair of the JBWere Board effective Thursday 1 June 2023.

Announced today by NAB Executive for Business and Private Banking, Andrew Irvine, Ms Carver’s appointment will see her take over from current Chairman, Michael Saadie, who will remain on the Board alongside Greg Braddy and Maria Lykouras.
