The names of all Commissioners can be located on The Crown Estate website. They are set out below, along with the information on when they were appointed.

With the exception of Sir Robin Budenberg, all current Commissioners have been appointed on four-year terms. In general, non-executive Commissioners serve an initial four-year period and may be renewed up to a further four years. In exceptional circumstances, a non-executive Board Member may serve for a further two years and for not more than ten years in total. Executive Commissioners (currently the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer) are also generally appointed on four-year terms, but there is no limit on the number of times they may be renewed.

Sir Robin Budenberg KBE Chair Appointed - 1 August 2016 and was reappointed on 1 August 2020, and an extension to his final term agreed in February 2024. His appointment will end in July 2025.
