Ferrario has been general manager of the Junee Ex-Services Club for the past two years and has an extensive background in racing.
He won't start until November 29 and replaces Steve Keene, who has taken on the chief executive position at Scone Race Club.
The 50-year-old worked as a bookmaker's clerk when he was younger but went on to work in the wagering department at Tabcorp and then had a stint at Sky Racing.

After moving back to the region three years ago, Ferrario is thrilled to have landed his 'dream job'.
"It's a big moment in my life and I can't wait to start," Ferrario said.
"I'm passionate about racing and the Murrumbidgee Turf Club, I assume would be in the top five biggest country race clubs in NSW.
"It's not just a race club, it's also a function centre, and plays a huge role in the Wagga community."
