About the role

Richard Hawkins, director of football insights and innovations, and David Harrison, director of football operations, have both been informed that they will no longer have roles in the future and exit terms are being discussed. Harrison held one of the most senior football positions in the previous regime at United, overseeing all operational aspects of the Carrington training ground, including facilities, catering and security, as well as travel and accommodation for the first team, and football administration matters, such as player registrations. He has also been at the heart of the Carrington refurbishment and will be staying to oversee the move back into the upgraded facility. He is highly regarded across football, after 27 years at Everton where he would often be pictured with new recruits having assisted as club secretary. His social skills have enabled him to communicate from boardroom and dressing room.
