Tech chief moves from AMP to PwC

Jacqui Visch has left AMP after more than two years and is set to join PwC as the firm's chief digital and information officer.

Visch was most recently the chief technology and data officer with AMP and has held tech, data, and infrastructure roles with Westpac and BT. She started her career as a senior business analyst with Westpac in 2004.

PwC COO Liza Maimone said, "We are delighted to have Jacqui join the partnership to support the continued evolution of PwC Australia's technology strategy. Jacqui brings a wealth of experience across tech strategy, tech transformation, digitisation, data, cyber and agile ways of working. Her deep expertise will also drive business, data and technology transformations for clients, and she is well-positioned to steer sustainable growth and lead through disruption."

Said Visch on her appointment, "I am honoured and thrilled to be joining PwC Australia and taking on such a dynamic and diverse role. It's an exciting and equally important time to be adopting and curating new ways of working and enabling change to flourish for clients and the firm. I believe in developing people, lasting connections, continuous improvement, and collaboration. My focus will be putting clients at the centre of every business, process and experience decision to drive application agility, modernisation and data enrichment."

Visch replaces Vishy Narayanan, who is moving into a new role as the chief digital information officer for the firm's Asia Pacific operations.
