The Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC) has the public responsibility of managing one of the largest and the most successful stadiums in Australia and the world – the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). The MCG is more than just a stadium, it’s an Australian icon and a meeting place for generations past, present and future.
The MCG is host to more than 70 major events and attracts over four million visitors annually. The MCC is the largest sporting club in the country with over 150,000 members and also manages 13 sporting sections with participation over 2,600. The Australian Sports Museum (ASM) has its home at the MCG, celebrating the country’s rich sporting history, which is also managed by the MCC.
The Finance and Business Performance department is responsible for administering the finances of the Club’s entities, including reporting, financial performance management, investment, compliance, financial integrity and debt management. The department is also responsible for major project management, legal, payroll, business intelligence, strategic and business planning, risk management, internal auditing, contract management, legislative compliance, tendering and procurement.
