Premiership Rugby is looking to appoint an additional member and a chair to its Financial Monitoring Panel (FMP). The FMP is responsible for ensuring that clubs starting each Gallagher Premiership rugby season have the financial resources necessary to complete the season.

The Financial Monitoring system and regulations aim to:

  • Ensure that clubs and the Premiership are financially resilient.
  • Protect the sporting integrity of the Premiership and all other competitions in which clubs participate.
  • Create a more stable and sustainable ecosystem for professional rugby union in England.
  • Provide confidence to current and future stakeholders of the Premiership and all other competitions in which clubs participate.

The Chair and FMP are responsible for deciding on matters outlined in the Financial Monitoring Regulations, including (but not limited to):

  • Reviewing, each season, the recommendations from the Financial Monitoring Director to determine if a club has sufficient financial resources to complete the upcoming season.
  • Reviewing referrals from the Financial Monitoring Director regarding Material Change Notices and other concerns, such as in-season issues with a club’s financial resources.
  • Determining whether a club has breached the regulations as alleged in the Financial Monitoring Director’s report.

The Chair must be a legally qualified individual with at least ten years' experience as a solicitor or barrister in England and Wales, with familiarity in sports-related dispute resolution and relevant financial experience. Additional member must be legally qualified and/or an accountant.

How to Apply

Interested candidates should send their CV and covering letter by email to Andrew Rogers at fmp@premiershiprugby.com by Monday, 16th December 2024.
