Since 2023, Mr Cahill has served as President of Value Added Services (VAS), responsible for the design, development and provision of a global portfolio of 200+ products and solutions that authorize customer development and business performance. He first joined Visa in 2018 as Visa Europe’s chief executive and later became deputy chief executive of the area, where he oversees all Visa customers’ relations in 38 European markets.

Before joining Visa, Mr Cahill served as CEO of National Australia Bank (NAB), where he spent eight years in higher roles. Earlier in his career, Mr Cahill spent 12 years in Australia and the New Zealand banking team (ANZ).

“We are grateful to Charlotte for everything he has done to promote our business in Europe,” said Visa CEO Ryan McPiner. “With Antony’s experience in the area, a deep understanding of the diversity and complexity of our markets and strong relationships with our partners is unique to lead Visa Europe.”
