Hinton Set to Lead Racing NSW, Says Callander
Graeme Hinton is poised to become a leading administrator at Racing NSW when Racing NSW CEO Vince Gerardis transitions to a role with Rugby League next month, according to prominent industry figure Richard Callander. Callander believes Hinton deserves the opportunity and will prove a standout leader for the racing sector.
Gerardis's impending departure to Rugby League was announced previously, paving the way for a leadership change within Racing NSW. Hinton’s appointment as interim CEO is expected, though formal confirmation is still pending.
Callander’s assessment comes amidst some criticism of Hinton’s appointment. He contends that many of those voicing concerns lack a full understanding of Hinton’s capabilities and experience within the racing industry. He suggests Hinton’s proven track record and dedication warrant a chance to demonstrate his leadership skills at the helm of Racing NSW.
The transition period will be a crucial time for the racing industry in NSW, and Callander’s endorsement of Hinton highlights the confidence some stakeholders have in his ability to navigate the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. The appointment signals a potential shift in direction for Racing NSW, with Hinton expected to bring his own perspective and priorities to the role.
