Robert Logan and Mitchell Davis have been appointed to NZTR’s first Racing Business Associate (RBA) roles.

NZTR was impressed with the calibre of applicants for the recently advertised appointments and both our inaugural appointees come with strong credentials.  Robert and Mitchell have strong industry backgrounds, post-graduation they have both been immersed in our industry gaining significant experience at New Zealand Bloodstock.

The roles will be rotational with the RBAs working through the business.  Robert, who has a BCom, commences on Monday 9 May in an Executive support role to CEO Bruce Sharrock for the first 3-4 months of his term.  Mitchell’s initial position will be confirmed closer to his commencement date in June, he holds a Bachelor of Management Studies.

The response to the advertisement for the RBA roles has been so positive that we expect to confirm a further two RBAs to join Robert and Mitchell in the programme shortly.

CEO Bruce Sharrock said the RBA roles provide a brilliant opportunity for those with a passion for the industry.

“It gives those enthusiastic people, who want to learn all aspects of Racing Administration, the chance to do so while also adding value and support to our existing teams,” he said.
