September 13, 2024

Anthony Miller has been promoted to group CEO and managing director of Westpac, effective 16 December 2024.
He will succeed Peter King, who has been CEO since 2019 and is retiring after 30 years with Westpac.
Miller joined Westpac four years ago, first as CEO of institutional banking and later heading the business and wealth unit.
His previous roles include CEO of Deutsche Bank Australia and New Zealand and a managing director at Goldman Sachs for over 16 years.
Westpac’s board selected Miller for his customer focus, performance track record, and deep understanding of the Australian market.
Miller aims to grow Westpac safely and sustainably, focusing on customer trust, risk excellence, and technology simplification (via the UNITE program).
Westpac, founded in 1817, is Australia’s oldest bank, part of the “big four”, with over 13 million customers and 36,000+ employees worldwide.
