After a record-breaking return last year, Celebrity Apprentice Australia will be back on Channel 9 in 2022, bringing together more of the country’s biggest names to battle it out in the boardroom.

The celebrities, divided into two teams, will take on a range of epic tasks to avoid billionaire boss Lord Alan Sugar’s firing squad, while using their business savvy and little black book of contacts to raise money for their chosen charities.

After the celebrities raised close to $1 million last year, the charities will again be the real winners. In addition to the $100,000 in prizemoney for the winner’s charity, generous donations from celebrity contacts and guest appearances will also add to the money raised throughout the series.

The personal stakes will be higher too as big egos, high-pressure situations, and exciting new game play ramps up the competition between the celebrities. There are sure to be more explosive moments and twists and turns on the road to the winner being crowned the Celebrity Apprentice.

• One of Australia’s most inspirational women, author and motivational speaker, Turia Pitt
• KIIS FM National Drive Hosts, Will and Woody
• Dual Olympic gold medallist and world champion swimmer, Bronte Campbell
• Logie Award-winning actress, model and Australian sweetheart, Jodi Gordon
• Rugby league great and Wests Tigers legend, Benji Marshall
• Real Housewives of Melbourne star, Gamble Breaux
• Married at First Sight’s most controversial bride and socialite, Beck Zemek
• Hollywood actor and Australian Film Institute award winner, Vince Colosimo

• A queen of Australian comedy, trailblazer and author, Jean Kittson
• Renowned television presenter and actor, Darren McMullen
• Face of Givenchy and international supermodel, Jarrod Scott
• Secretary to former NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian and social media sensation, Carla from Bankstown
• One of The Block’s most successful all-stars and renovation expert, Ronnie Caceres
