Angus Kinnear will become Everton’s new CEO, effective from 1 June 2025. Angus will join Everton from Leeds United, where he has been CEO since 2017. Before Leeds, Angus held leadership roles at Arsenal and West Ham United.
Colin Chong will remain with the club overseeing Everton’s new stadium and the regeneration of its surrounding area, as well the future of Goodison Park.
Colin said: “It has been an honour to serve as Everton’s CEO and to shepherd the Club through challenging times and into a bright new future under The Friedkin Group. I look forward to taking on this new role focusing on our new home and, just as importantly, the regeneration of the area around it.”
Kevin Thelwell, will continue as Director of Football until the new CEO is in place; he will leave the club when his contract expires at the end of the season. Kevin joined Everton in 2022 and has overseen 3 years of turbulence behind the scenes at the club. His departure will see the club transition to a wider sporting leadership team.
Kevin said: “I am extremely proud of what we have achieved in the most challenging of circumstances over the past three years and believe I’ll leave the Club in a much stronger position than when I joined in 2022. It has been a privilege to work for Everton Football Club and I would like to thank the players, staff and of course the fans for their fantastic support during my time here. I also look forward to seeing the Club progress on and off the pitch in the years to come under the stewardship of TFG.”
Chief Commercial and Communications Officer Richard Kenyon is also leaving the Club. Richard has served Everton for more than 11 years in a variety of senior leadership positions, including as CEO of Everton in the Community from 2018-2021. His responsibilities will be divided between existing members of the Communications and Commercial Teams.
