Today host Allison Langdon has taken a cheeky swipe at former Australia Post boss Christine Holgate as she announced her new job at a parcel deliveries business.
Ms Holgate is joining Toll Global Express as the new CEO and plans to grow its eCommerce sales and delivery operations in competition with her old employer.
She appeared on the Today show on Monday morning to discuss her new role, where Langdon could not help but ask Ms Holgate Any Cartier watches? .
The question was in reference to Ms Holgate resigning from Australia Post in November after it was revealed she used taxpayer funds to buy highly-paid executives four Cartier watches worth $5,000 each as a reward for signing a lucrative deal with Australia s biggest banks.
