Timeline

1954

Ann Caroline Sherry (born 1954) is an Australian public servant and businesswoman.

Ann Caroline Sherry was born on 2 February 1954 in Gympie, Queensland, Australia to parents, John Morgan Sherry and June Caroline (née Stanton), who were both pharmacists.

She had an uneventful childhood in Gympie until her parents moved to a new pharmacy in Brisbane where she attended high school at Somerville House.

1975

Having finished school, she initially trained as a radiographer, but from 1975 to 1977 studied economics and politics at the University of Queensland achieving a Bachelor of Arts.

She married Michael and had a son during her university studies.

1980

In the early 1980s, the couple moved to London, United Kingdom where Sherry was employed as a prison social worker.

Sherry and family returned to Australia to live in Melbourne, Victoria.

There Sherry worked in a trade union for 5 years becoming increasing involved in political debate.

After this, she worked in the Victorian public service involved with delivery of programs for after-school care and for employment of people with disabilities.

1992

She moved to Canberra where she was First Assistant Secretary (the head) of the Office of the Status of Women from 1992 to 1994.

In that role, she advised the Prime Minister on how to improve the status of women in Australia.

She represented the Australian Government in the areas of women's rights and human rights in the United Nations.

Bob Joss, Chief Executive Officer of the Westpac Bank was concerned about the lack of women in senior management roles in the corporation.

Through a headhunter, Sherry was approached to join the bank.

Her first role with the bank was a diverse one, covering superannuation, occupational health and safety, diversity and industrial relations.

One of her first actions was to implement a paid maternity scheme for staff, an issue she had been passionate about in her role of the Office of the Status of Women.

2000

She rose through the corporate hierarchy of the bank to become the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank of Melbourne (a subsidiary of Westpac) from 2000 to 2002.

2002

From 2002 to 2007, she was based in Auckland, New Zealand as the CEO for Westpac New Zealand (which also served the Pacific Islands).

She spent 12 years working in banking.

One of the difficult issues in her new role was the ongoing investigation into the Death of Dianne Brimble in 2002 on the P&O Pacific Sky, which had caused considerable damage to the reputation of the cruise line, leading to suggestions that the cruise line should change its name.

However, Sherry was influenced by the 75-year history of the cruise line in Australia and decide to retain the brand, working with advertising agency BMF to reposition the brand.

2007

In July 2007, Sherry left banking and became CEO of Carnival Australia, a cruise line operating brands such as P&O, saying that she had always enjoyed and been passionate about travel.
