As Chief Executive Officer, you will be tasked with engaging the rowing community, building membership capacity, and managing stakeholder relationships, while running the day-to-day business operations of the sport. The role also presents an excellent opportunity to be involved in event management, with some of the largest rowing regattas in Australia staged at Lake Barrington.

Supported by a small dedicated team of professional staff and highly committed volunteer commissions, the CEO will be expected to administer many of the day-to-day activities of the organisation and must be willing to work hands-on with a ‘whatever it takes’ attitude get the job done.

You will bring proven leadership in sport or related sectors, with a track record of growing participation and community engagement. Strong business or commercial acumen and financial management skills are essential, along with demonstrated experience in governance and stakeholder relations across government, sponsors, clubs, and community groups.

You will provide visionary leadership, strategic oversight, and effective management to grow participation, enhance competitive success, secure sustainable funding, and build strong stakeholder engagement and communications, ultimately promoting the growth and visibility of rowing statewide.
