Cricket Australia (CA) CEO Nick Hockley is set to step down from the role at the end of the ongoing season (2024-2025) after five years of tenure.
Hockley served the board for 13 years, and took over as its chief executive following the resignation of his predecessor Kevin Roberts in 2020.
“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,” Hockley said in a statement issued by CA.
“This is not the time for goodbyes, as I remain completely focussed on the season ahead and supporting the Board on succession and a smooth transition,” he added.

Hockley was appointed interim CEO of Cricket Australia in June 2020 and then moved to a permanent role a year later. CA Chair Mike Baird confirmed Hockley’s exit.
“As CEO, Nick navigated the sport through a period of unprecedented challenge during the (Covid) pandemic and has delivered significant growth and stability,"
“The timing of Nick’s decision allows the Board to ensure a smooth transition and we will begin the process of finding and appointing his successor shortly,” said Baird.
