Dave Cobb, one of the key executives during the Vancouver Olympics, is expected to be named the CEO of BC Hydro.
The appointment, which has yet to be announced, would make him the second executive from the Vancouver Olympic Organizing Committee to take a major role in the public utility. Dan Doyle, who oversaw the building of Olympic venues, was appointed Hydro’s chairman in July, before the Games.
Cobb is a chartered accountant by training. But he was best known as the chief operating officer of the Vancouver Canucks hockey team and Orca Bay Sports and Entertainment. One of his major files during the Olympics was creating a ticketing system to ensure as many seats were filled as possible.
