Bennett replaces Michael Phillips, who is now working in Sydney.
Phillips played a major role in attracting and creating some big golf tournaments at the club as seen by the PGA National Futures Championships and the Ballarat Junior Masters.
Bennett is a Ballarat local and comes to the club with 20 years of experience in the hospitality industry.
Ballarat Golf Club Chairman John King said Bennett’s vision for the club made him a standout from the strong field.
“After an extensive search with over 50 candidates applying for the position, Ashley was the stand out,” King said.
“He had great vision for our club and displayed a sound understanding of what is required.”
Bennett will begin his new role on August 6.
