THE AFL today announced Hawthorn general manager of football operations Mark Evans as Adrian Anderson's replacement.

In a boost for clubs who wanted the new AFL football operations manager to come from club-land, Evans won the role after a tight race from several key candidates both from within and outside the league.

SuperFooty exclusively revealed the appointment this morning, which was confirmed at an AFL press conference.

Evans is a highly regarded football official, having served a number of years with the Hawks and also with Melbourne.

He has been instrumental in the re-making of the Hawthorn Football club, joining the Hawks at the same time as coach Alastair Clarkson in late 2004.

Evans, who last year attended the Harvard Business School as part of his role at the Hawks, said he would not make any "grand statements" until he had runs on the board at the AFL.

"I was absolutely delighted to accept Andrew's offer to join his executive team. This is the best sporting administration going around, without a doubt," he said at AFL headquarters today.

"I know the role will be challenging and I hope that my background … will stand my in good stead for what's ahead."

Evans thanked the Hawks for their support over the past nine years, while AFL chief executive Andrew Demetriou said the league was thrilled to snare the one-time Demons media manager.

"We're absolutely delighted that Mark has accepted the role, I'm thrilled and pleased we were able to attract someone of Mark's calibre and experience."

Who is Mark Evans?

Mark played for Box Hill from 1992-1995 and in 2010 was awarded life membership to recognise 10 years' service as a player and administrator. He is currently a Hawthorn director and is a former director of Sandringham Football Club.

Evans holds a Bachelor of Education from Ballarat University and in 2012 completed key executive programs in strategy, strategic leadership, negotiation and innovation at the Harvard Business School.

He is also studying for a Master of Business Administration from Southern Cross University in topics including sport and the law, economics and labour market in sport, leadership and culture, marketing, communications and crisis management.
