The Star Entertainment Group has completed its new leadership team structure following the appointment of Mark Mackay as chief executive officer of The Star Gold Coast.
Mackay formerly served as chief operating officer (COO) of Crown Resorts Melbourne and COO of The Star Gold Coast
Mackay’s appointment completes the new leadership structure of decentralised management across the operator’s three integrated resort developments in Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sydney.
“Mark has a deep understanding of what it takes to run a leading integrated resort development and brings a lot of capability to this role,” said Anne Ward, chairwoman of The Star.
“Mark’s appointment and relevant experience further strengthen our leadership team as we focus on implementing the necessary reforms at The Star”.
Alongside the appointment of Mackay, The Star announced the sale of its Treasury Brisbane building to Griffith University for AU$67.5 million plus tax.
The sale is subject to a number of conditions, including relevant government consents and a new lease to be granted and registered.
The new lease and settlement is anticipated to occur on around 27 September.
