SEEK appoints new chairman-elect, reports strong FY25 performance

SEEK Limited announced the appointment of Greg Roebuck as a non-executive director from January 1, 2026, and chairman-elect. He will succeed Graham Goldsmith, who retires from the board on March 1, 2026, after 13 years of service, seven as chairman. Roebuck, co-founder of CAR Group Limited, will stand for election at the 2026 Annual General Meeting. This succession aligns with SEEK's structured approach to board and committee planning.

For FY25, SEEK reported strong operational performance, including a total dividend of 46 cps (up 11 cps from 2024), net revenue of $1,090.4m, and adjusted profit of $155.2m. The SEEK Growth Fund’s total portfolio value increased 7% to $2,269m, with life-to-date distributions of $198m. The company also strengthened its balance sheet, reducing debt ratios.

SEEK's strategic focus for FY26 aims to increase placement share, achieve high single-digit yield growth, and create operating leverage through revenue growth outpacing cost growth. The company also highlighted its sustainability efforts, achieving a 40% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from a FY22 baseline and progressing initiatives in human rights, data protection, and diversity.
