Cindy Hook announced on Tuesday she will resign at the end of her four-year contract, saying it was the right time to pass the baton to a new leader to ensure a smooth transition as preparations for the Australian games move into the next phase of operations.

"During the past four years, I have achieved everything we had hoped for and had many amazing experiences along the way," Ms Hook said in a written statement.

"I know Brisbane 2032 will deliver a Games that all Australians will be proud of, and I have every confidence the team will continue what we have started with a new leader."

The board expects to make an announcement on Ms Hook's replacement in the coming months.

Located in north-east Australia, Brisbane will become the third Australian city to host a Summer Olympics after Melbourne in 1956 and Sydney in 2000.
