Cricket Australia CEO Nick Hockley has announced that he will step down after the upcoming season, concluding nearly 13 years of service in Australian cricket, including five years as the CA CEO.
Hockley stated, “This was a difficult decision; however, following what promises to be a blockbuster summer and with our five-year strategic plan well progressed, this is the right time to pursue another challenge. This will also give the Board ample time to find the next CEO to build on the strong foundations now in place. This is not the time for goodbyes, as I remain completely focused on the season ahead and supporting the Board on succession and a smooth transition.”
CA Chair Mike Baird confirmed that Hockley had informed the Board that next summer would be his final one as CEO.
