South African banking giant FNB has appointed Malawian marketing executive Linda Kachingwe as its new Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), marking another significant milestone in her distinguished career in the financial services sector.

Kachingwe brings extensive experience in brand strategy, customer engagement, and marketing leadership. She holds a Master’s degree and has built a strong reputation for driving innovative marketing campaigns across Africa.
