BRAD’S BACK AT THE HELM

Brad Morgan has returned to what seems like home.

He is back as General Manager of Mindil Beach Casino Resort – where he managed from 2010-2015 – with a vision to continue to evolve this already iconic Northern Territory venue into a vibrant hub and go-to destination for the local community.

Brad is also committed to continuing the property’s proud tradition of supporting meaningful community causes.

“This place is a huge part of the community,” he says. “It’s a focal point.

“Many long and short-time Territorians have strong connections to this property – they’ve attended an event under the stars on the back lawns, had a memorable dinner in one of the award-winning restaurants or wear the Mindil Beach Casino Resort logo on their footy jumper.

“If I had to pick a job in Darwin, this would be it. It’s exciting and challenging – every day is different.

“This property has arguably the best bars, the best restaurants and the best gaming in the Territory. There is no doubt it has the best staff.

“It’s also deeply committed to giving back, proudly sponsoring local sports clubs, community events and business and tourism initiatives.”

Brad’s track record includes a wealth of experience gained from managing a wide variety of hospitality venues, including casinos, licensed clubs and hotels throughout Australia.

He’s now focused on unlocking the full potential of Mindil Beach Casino Resort’s beautiful beachside location to deliver even more memorable experiences for guests.

“We’re fortunate to have beautiful lawns overlooking the Arafura Sea and I am eager to use them even more for entertainment that the community can enjoy.”

A recent concert on the lawns by Territorian Jessica Mauboy was a standout success, highlighting the space’s potential for unique and memorable events.

“People absolutely loved it – the feedback was sensational. We made the ticket prices affordable so as many people as possible could attend.

“I want more entertainment like that, great events in a fantastic setting.”

Mindil Beach Casino Resort is Darwin’s most diverse entertainment complex, offering three restaurants – The Vue, il Piatto and Dragon Court – and four bars, Sportsbar, INFINITY, Sandbar and Lagoon Bar, plus more than 600 gaming machines, over 30 table games, a day spa, eight functions spaces, as well as the hotel and resort.

The venue encourages responsible gambling – the aim is to deliver entertainment in a safe and positive environment.

Brad is a former high-level rugby league player and still applies values and principles he learned from
his sporting background, such as teamwork, hard work and resilience, into his management philosophy.

He says that he feels grateful to have inherited such an experienced workforce at the property.

“Staff are the difference between a good business and a bad business. Customer service is everything – so it’s thrilling to see our team here excelling in creating memorable experiences for our guests.”

He values the casino resort’s strong connection to the Darwin community and takes pride in its longstanding support of a wide range of causes over the years – from the Energy Club and the Humpty Dumpty Foundation, to NT Tenpin Bowlers with a Disability and the Waratah Football Club.

“My family is deeply embedded in the Darwin community. My wife is a Darwin business owner, our two daughters are successful in their chosen fields in Darwin, our son is a recruit constable with the NT police, my son-in-law has a successful electrical and project management business, and our six grandchildren are all enrolled in Darwin schools.

“We’re deeply involved in our community – and I wouldn’t have it any other way.” TQ
