Former West Ham employee Chris Beadle quits Head of Football role to join Leeds United
Former West Ham employee Chris Beadle has quite the Head of Football role at CSM Sport & Entertainment agency to join Leeds United.
The 37-year-old confirmed on his LinkedIn account that he is now the Director of Partnership Sales as he’s taken up a behind-the-scenes Elland Road role.
He was at West Ham from 2014 to 2017 and served as their Head of Partnership Development – a similar position to the one he’s taken at Leeds.
Decent CV
Beadle is by and large a football guy and he should be a good behind-the-scenes appointment at Elland Road.
Fans may never see or hear of him but he will work in a senior backroom role to ensure that the club makes more money throw sponsors and partnerships.
It’s important for every club to be a cash-making machine especially if they have ambitions to rise and become one of the best in the land.
He’s also managed accounts of clubs like Manchester City so he does know how clubs at the highest level operate and will surely have made plenty of contacts on the way.
His CV is impressive and we’re keen to see the commercial growth he contributes to in the coming years at Leeds.
His previous employers CSM were the exclusive agency to Chelsea for two years and they’ve undoubtedly seen their brand grow in the past few years and hopefully, he takes the Whites to new heights.
