St Kilda CEO Matt Finnis today offered his congratulations to Ameet Bains on his appointment as Western Bulldogs CEO.

 

“We are really proud that Ameet has secured this position,” Finnis said.

 

“Since joining the Saints in the role of GM Player List and Legal Affairs in January 2011, Ameet has played an instrumental role in regenerating our playing list, leading our recruitment team and providing support and leadership within our football department.

 

“In more recent years, he has also driven a number of strategic projects for the club including our push to play more games in New Zealand and project management of our impending relocation home to RSEA Park, Moorabbin.

 

“Along the journey he was awarded the AFL’s Graeme Samuel Scholarship and has grown to become a highly respected executive by all at the Saints and across the AFL industry.

 

“We thank Ameet for his contribution to St Kilda and wish him well in his new role at the Bulldogs.”

 

Bains will remain at St Kilda until December 2017 to oversee the handover of specific off-field projects.
