Snowball will take up his position with the seven-time county champions in January 2016 and replaces Colin Povey, who is retiring from the post next month.
Snowball is currently the CEO of England Rugby 2015 Ltd, the organising committee for this year's Rugby World Cup, and was previously the head of sport operations at the London Organising Committee for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games (LOCOG).
Warwickshire chairman Norman Gascoigne said: "Neil was the outstanding candidate for the role. He will bring a wealth of relevant experience as the club strives for greater success on and off the field, building on the outstanding platform created under the leadership of Colin Povey. I am delighted to welcome Neil to Warwickshire."
Snowball said: "I am delighted to have been appointed as Warwickshire's chief executive, joining a club with not only a proud and successful history but with a clear ambition for the future.
"The strength of the playing squad as evidenced by performances over the last five years and the world class facilities at Edgbaston offer enormous opportunity in the years ahead."
