Welcome to our new CEO
Matthew Brown

2018 is destined to be a fantastic year for Equestrian Victoria. Not only do we have newly appointed board members, in January we also welcomed Matthew Brown as our CEO. We are all excited to work under Matthew's guidance and we congratulate him on his appointment.

 

"I am pleased to be working with you as your CEO and look forward to the year ahead. This will be my first opportunity to introduce myself to most of you and say 'Hello'. 

In 2018 we will focus on consolidating an organisational structure aligned with our strategic priorities of supporting:

  • Sport development
  • Membership and
  • Events

 The EV team will achieve this through a commitment to organisational excellence underpinned by good governance.

I look forward to sharing the vision of Equestrian Victoria's refreshed board and management in the months to come.

Until next issue, safe riding."

Matthew Brown
CEO  |  Equestrian Victoria
