Former Australian fast bowler Stuart Clark has been appointed as the Chief Operating Officer of the NSW Rugby League.
The NSWRL had been advertising the newly created role for around six months and a NSWRL official confirmed to AAP on Wednesday that Clark has won the job.
Clark has sports administration experience in his role as general manager of Big Bash League franchise Sydney Sixers for the 2011 and 2012 seasons.
The 39-year-old played 24 Tests, 39 One Day Internationals and nine Twenty20 Internationals for Australia.
Clark will begin work at the NSWRL next month.
