Crown Resorts has announced the appointment of former Victorian Attorney-General Martin Pakula as new Chairman of Crown Melbourne’s Board of Directors, succeeding Ian Silk.

Pakula will join the Crown Melbourne board from 1 May 2025 before assuming the role of Chairman from 1 July.

“Martin’s appointment comes at an exciting time as Crown continues to focus on innovation and growth,” said Crown Resorts CEO David Tsai.

“I look forward to Crown benefiting from Martin’s extensive industry and leadership experience. I would like to express my sincere thanks to Ian for his exceptional leadership and the pivotal role he played in overseeing Crown Melbourne’s extensive transformation.”

Pakula brings extensive experience to the role, having previously served as Attorney-General and Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events in the Victorian government. He currently serves as Chair of the Australian Grand Prix Corporation.

Crown noted that the man Pakula replaces successfully led Crown Melbourne through a period of unprecedented remediation and transformation during the past two and a half years – ultimately resulting in the property winning back its casino license last year from the Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission.

Silk said, “It has been an honor to serve as Chair. I am extremely proud of what we have achieved over the past two and a half years, and I want to thank everyone at Crown Melbourne for their dedication and hard work. I’m confident Crown Melbourne will continue to thrive with Martin’s leadership.”

Pakula’s appointment remains subject to regulatory approvals.
