CCA noted Borghetti, who has been in his current role as Virgin chief executive since 2010, had more than 40 years commercial experience in “consumer focused, internationally diversified businesses.
“John brings highly relevant consumer and listed company leadership experience to CCA, including working successfully with large partners and operating across a range of international markets,” CCA chairman David Gonski said in a statement.
“He provides an excellent complement to the skills and backgrounds we have already at our board table.”
