Former Liberal Party senator Helen Coonan has a new job offer, just days after resigning from Parliament.
Crown Casino has announced its intention to appoint the former communications minister to its board.
The gaming regulator has to sign off on the appointment, but Crown hopes to have her on the board before Christmas.
Independent Senator Nick Xenophon says he is saddened by the appointment.
"Helen Coonan's had a distinguished career and public life," she said.
"She's been a senior minister in the Howard government and to take a position on the board of a company, Crown Casino, where we know they peddle a product - poker machines, gambling - that causes so much misery to so many, is pretty sad."
