From the Wikipedia article

Christine Holgate (born 1963/1964) is a British-Australian business executive who is the chief executive of Team Global Express, having held similar roles at Australia Post and Blackmores. She was the first woman to be named as the "CEO of the Year" by CEO Magazine, in 2015. She came to media attention in 2020, while at Australia Post, for having purchased four Cartier watches worth A$20,000, equivalent to A$21,929 in 2022, for senior management executives. After being grilled by a Senate committee and being pressured into resigning by prime minister of Australia Scott Morrison, an independent investigation later reported that she had done nothing wrong.
