SEPPELTSFIELD Wines owner Warren Randall has taken up a position on the Adelaide Football Club’s Board of Directors.

On the Adelaide Football Club’s website, Crows chairman Rob Chapman said Mr Randall was a highly successful leader who had skills and qualities to complement those of existing board directors.

“Warren is well known to the club and admired for his business acumen and authenticity,” Mr Chapman said.

“He has a proven track record of developing and leading successful organisations, having built a large global business based here in South Australia, and like the other directors he will play a key role in guiding the club through the COVID-19 environment and beyond.”

Mr Randall described his appointment as a privilege, and said he was motivated by his passion for the Crows as well as the challenges that lie ahead.

“I look forward to using my many and varied experiences in business and building high-performing organisations to help the club grow and prosper,” he said.

Mr Randall replaced Jim McDowell who stepped down due to the demands of his role as chief executive of SA’s Department of Premier and Cabinet.
