McCann has also held the position of President Americas since December 2011 (formerly CEO of UBS Group Americas).

As President of UBS Wealth Management Americas, McCann coordinated Wealth Management Americas, the Investment Bank and the Asset Management divisions, which conduct business in the U.S., Canada, Latin America and South America.

Under McCann, Wealth Management Americas conceived Revitalizing America, an initiative that consists of high-profile speaking engagements along with programs aimed at the U.S. economy. The Clinton Foundation and UBS Wealth Management Americas formed the CEO-UBS Small Business Advisory Program, a philanthropic partnership aimed at boosting business and job growth by bolstering the knowledge and skills of small business owners in underserved communities. The Foundation's Clinton Economic Opportunity Initiative (CEO) and UBS Wealth Management Americas in 2011 concluded the six-month pilot mentorship program in the New York City metropolitan area, where small business owners received guidance from a UBS financial advisor, along with access to Wealth Management Americas clients who are experienced business leaders. In 2012 this programme was rolled out across firms in Chicago and Los Angeles.

On August 13th 2020, McCann announced his public departure from UBS
