NEW CEO TO ROUND OUT REVITALISED SENIOR TEAM AT PERTH FOOTBALL CLUB

CEO, Russell Clark, has left his role at the Perth Football Club to allow the Demons to embrace a new strategic direction in 2025.

With the recent appointments of Mark Stone as Coach, and Brad Dodd as General Manager of Football, Clark and the Board mutually agreed the time was right for a new CEO to take the helm and drive the historic club forward.

President, Adrian Barich, thanked Clark for his passion and commitment to the Club which started when he was a player back in the early 1990s.

“Russell has made a significant contribution to the administration and financial stability of our club, firstly as Football Manager, and more recently as CEO,” he said.

“Over the past five years he has guided several of our major initiatives including the establishment of women’s football, indigenous partnerships and the planning of a new facility at Mineral Resources Park.

“We are grateful for Russell’s dedication and commitment during his time at the Club”. 

Mr Barich said the Board will immediately begin exploring options for a new CEO with the skills and experience to deliver a new era of pride and ambition for Perth Football Club.

“We have a team of young, talented players, a loyal supporter base and a Board that are determined to forge an exciting new future for the Demons,” he said.

“With the support of our partners and sponsors, a new strategic plan under development and our desire to build a new home at Mineral Resources Park as strong as ever, we believe the next few years for the club will be full of potential.”

Perth Football Club’s Partnerships and Business Development Manager, Jared Bell has been appointed as Interim CEO until a new CEO is appointed.
