Racing Minister Steve Dickson is reminding Queensland?s racing industry that nominations for Board positions in the new governance structure will close on Friday, January 4.
Mr Dickson said he was looking for the racing sector?s best and brightest to help lead the 30,000 strong industry into the future.
?The Newman Government is continuing to deliver upon its election commitments to the racing industry, by establishing the Queensland All Codes Racing Industry Board (QACRIB) and three code-specific control boards,? Mr Dickson said.
?We now need the right people to fill those Board positions, to help guide the future of the industry in Queensland.
?As a part of this process, I am also calling for people outside of the south-east corner of Queensland to nominate for Board positions.
?There are a lot of passionate racing people throughout regional and country Queensland.
?Our main priority is to ensure we have people of the appropriate abilities to drive the industry forward, and that includes candidates from all areas of Queensland.?
Mr Dickson said the three code-specific Boards would comprise three persons, with their chairs to also sit on the Queensland Racing Industry All Codes Board alongside two additional members.
Applicants will be required to show they have skills and experience in the following criteria:
??? ?business or financial management
??? ?law
??? ?leadership
??? ?marketing
??? ?thoroughbred, harness or greyhound racing industry (as relevant).
In addition to having to meet at least one of the above criteria for appointment, nominees must supply a supporting recommendation from a current industry licensee, race club, industry association or stakeholder group to be considered by the recruitment company for shortlisting.
A shortlist of candidates will then be provided to an independent selection panel.
The process for applying for the positions is available online at www.racingqueensland.com.au.
