New Zealand Football appoints new Chief Executive

New Zealand Football appoints new Chief Executive
December 31, 2013

After an extensive worldwide search canvassing more than 179 candidates, New Zealand Football has announced the appointment of Andy Martin as its new Chief Executive.

Martin, who as Chief Executive of London Irish Rugby Club recently oversaw a two year project that led to the successful buy out of the club by a consortium of Irish businessmen, has now come back full circle to football his first love.

Welcoming his appointment, Martin explained "I am excited by the many opportunities and challenges facing New Zealand Football at the moment.

"We are at a potentially transformational point in its history."

It was football which influenced his decision to enter the world of banking; as a passionate junior footballer (and fan of Liverpool FC), Barclay's bank recruited him as a 16 year old.

Since then he has held a number of senior roles within the Bank most recently as a Board Member and Managing Director in the Corporate Bank. He also holds an MBA from Henley Business School.

Martin will be taking up the new role in February, and adds "I am very much looking forward to the coming period of change."
