Domino’s Pizza Enterprises CEO and MD Mark van Dyck will depart the company, effective December 23, 2025.
As part of the transition, van Dyck has stepped down as a director today but will continue to support the board and management until his departure at the end of the year.
“It has been a privilege to lead Domino’s through a transformative period,” said van Dyck.
“With a clear strategy and strong team in place, I believe the time will be right at the end of this calendar year to hand over to the next CEO. My focus in the months ahead will be on supporting a smooth transition.”
van Dyck’s resignation comes after just eight months in the role. The pizza chain said it has launched a global search for a new CEO.
Meanwhile, Chairman Jack Cowin will assume the role of executive chair on an interim basis, effective immediately.
Cowin is the largest shareholder of Domino’s Pizza Enterprises.
He also serves as the chairman and MD of the CFAL Group, Hungry Jack’s operator and exclusive master franchisee of Burger King in Australia.
In May, Domino’s Pizza Enterprises said Kerri Hayman will step down as CEO, effective August 29, 2025, concluding a 37-year career with the company.
Hayman’s resignation comes in less than a year since she became the company’s first female ANZ CEO.
Meanwhile, George Saoud will begin as the new company’s CFO in September.
The company has also appointed former Pizza Hut Australia CEO Phil Reed to a senior management role in Europe.
