Eugene J. Sheehy (born 1954 in Carlow, Ireland) was Group Chief Executive of Allied Irish Banks Plc.
Sheehy was appointed Chairman and CEO, Mid Atlantic Division, M&T Bank, and to the Executive Management Committee and Board of M&T in April 2003, following the merger of Allfirst and M&T.
Sheehy has managed to avoid most of the controversy that affected his predecessors Michael Buckley, Tom Mulcahy and Gerry Scanlon at the bank.

Sheehy retired alongside Chairman Dermot Gleeson and Finance Director John O'Donnell in 2009, following the Irish banking crisis.
