Cutler was named as the first CEO of Hong Kong Cricket Association in 2014 but it took a long process before being appointed to the position in May 2015, tasked with making Hong Kong cricket a shining light among the associates and building bridges with the government as well as the International Cricket Council.[7][8][9][10][11][12] He served as CEO of Hong Kong Cricket Association from 2015 to 2017 and during his tenure Hong Kong T20 Blitz was launched.[13][14][15] He resigned from the position of Hong Cricket CEO in April 2017.[16][6]

In late 2018, Cutler formed a WhatsApp group chat with Daniel Beswick and Nick Skinner regarding to develop the sport of cricket to other parts of the world and launched the Emerging Cricket platform.[17]

In March 2021, he was appointed as the CEO of Vanuatu Cricket Association replacing Shane Deitz and he is expected to commence his term as CEO from mid-April 2021.[18][19][20]
