ST JOHN’S, Antigua, CMC – President of Cricket West Indies (CWI), Dr Kishore Shallow, has revealed that the looming appointments of a chief operating officer and a chief commercial officer are among several new positions being created at the regional institution.

Dr Shallow said two people had already been recruited for the new roles, which were expected to start on October 1.

Additionally, he said that with current chief executive officer Johnny Grave, who is set to leave CWI in October, the search to find his replacement would commence in the next two weeks.

“We will start recruiting a new CEO in the next two weeks. Additionally, in terms of the new roles created, we have created a chief operations officer role, and we expect to have someone recruited for that role and starting in that role on October 1,” Dr Shallow said while speaking at CWI’s quarterly press conference on Thursday.

“We are changing the usual commercial head role, so rather than it being the commercial director, we are moving forward with a new title of chief commercial officer, which is in keeping with the modern-day practice of these types of organizations.

“So we will have that individual who has already been recruited, a highly competent and experienced individual who has worked with ICC and other reputable organizations. I will prefer not to name him at this time, but over the next couple weeks or so, we will announce this individual,” he added.

Dr Shallow said that while Nyssa Pierre had recently been named the new communications and media manager, two media officers would join the organization over the next two weeks.
