Ann Peacock, the public face of Melbourne’s Crown since its inception in the mid 1990s, is stepping down from the role. After holding senior positions for 29 years, Ms Peacock has decided to focus on pursuing charitable work and passions including a new board role on the Victoria Racing Club. During her tenure, Ms Peacock has been instrumental in philanthropic initiatives which have raised tens of millions of dollars for causes across the state. “I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved. It’s been a privilege to be part of Crown since opening, managing public relations, entertainment, stakeholder management and philanthropy and charity interests,” she said. “With the recent change of ownership of Crown, it’s an appropriate time for me to hand the reins on.”
