Martyn Roberts.
Nine Entertainment has appointed Martyn Roberts chief financial officer.
He replaces Graeme Cassells from September 8.
Roberts was CFO at Ramsay Health Care. Previously he was group CFO at Coca-Cola Amatil, and before that held senior executive roles at Woolworths and Louis Vuitton.
“I am delighted to welcome Martyn to Nine,” said CEO Matt Stanton.
“He brings extensive experience across a range of consumer-related industries, which together with his financial pedigree and ASX-market experience, makes him a great fit with Nine.
“I’d also like to acknowledge Graeme Cassells who stepped into the role as acting CFO, and was a great support to me particularly as we worked through Nine2028 and the sale of our stake in Domain.
“To ensure a smooth transition, Graeme will remain with Nine until his retirement at the end of the year.”
Roberts said Nine is a great Australian company.
"The recent sale of Domain has left the Group with a strong balance sheet to capitalise on its leading market position in media in Australia," he said.
"I am similarly convinced of the growth opportunities of the business and look forward to working with the board and Matt and the team to ensure we can optimise the performance of Nine’s portfolio of media assets."
