After a 33-year executive career, Carnegie will depart her role as group executive, Australia retail, on 1 July 2025.
Suncorp Bank CEO Bruce Rush will step into the position temporarily as ANZ searches for a new head of retail.
Carnegie has held the position since 2022, serving over 6 million customers.
She joined ANZ in 2016 as group executive digital banking, helping improve the digital experience for the bank’s customers.
According to ANZ CEO Nuno Matos, Carnegie’s time with the major has left a “significant impact.”
“Since joining ANZ in 2016, Maile has had a significant impact across payments, marketing, digitisation and most recently leading our retail business in Australia,” said Matos.
“When I joined ANZ last month Maile informed me of her desire to transition to a non-executive career outside the bank. I wish to extend my appreciation for her efforts in supporting my early days as CEO. On behalf of everyone at ANZ, I wish her well with the next phase of her career and thank her for all her efforts.”
Rush brings substantial experience to the new interim role. He joined Suncorp Bank in 2010 from Santander UK and has held the CEO position since August 2024.
He has a background in retail banking, holding senior roles across strategy, deposits, and home lending.
“Bruce is an experienced retail banker who has done an outstanding job as CEO of Suncorp Bank. His appointment will also assist with the migration of Suncorp Bank customers to ANZ, while we conduct a global search for the next leader of our retail business in Australia,” said Matos.
