Brisbane 2032 Olympics: CEO Cindy Hook to Step Down at End of 4-Year Contract

A global executive search begins as the organizing committee moves into the operations and delivery phase.

  • On Tuesday, Brisbane 2032 chief executive officer Cindy Hook announced she will depart at the end of her four-year contract early next year, with organizers confirming an immediate global executive search for her successor.
  • Hook, who joined in December 2022, transformed the committee from a fledgling start-up into a thriving organization after previously serving as the first female chief executive of Deloitte Australia, one of the Big Four firms.
  • "During the past four years, I have achieved everything we had hoped for," Hook said, citing her establishment of the Games Vision, strategic execution, and early market momentum as key accomplishments.
  • International Olympic Committee Coordination Commission chair Mikaela Cojuangco-Jaworski stated, "Cindy has helped turn opportunity into concrete progress," while President Andrew Liveris credited Hook's strategic intellect for setting the organization up for success.
  • The departure enables a smooth transition as Brisbane 2032 moves from planning to event delivery, positioning the committee ahead of the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028 and establishing Brisbane as the third Australian city to host the Summer Olympics.
