Peter Charrington has been named as Tottenham’s new non-executive chairman after the departure of Daniel Levy.
Levy has left the club after almost 25 years, stepping down as the longest-serving chairman in the Premier League. Tottenham also confirmed that Levy’s departure would not have any effect on the ownership or shareholder structure of the club.
Charrington has now step in, but who is the new head at the Spurs helm?
Who is Peter Charrington?
Charrington is the director of ENIC and former CEO of Citi Private Bank.
ENIC holds a majority stake in Spurs, while Levy has a 29.88 per cent stake in ENIC itself.
Charrington, meanwhile, spent 26 years at Citi, running the Global Private Banking business, which was based in New York.
He is also a senior partner at Nexus Luxury, a company that runs the Albany resort in the Bahamas. That resort is co-owned by Tavistock Group, which is former ENIC majority owner Joe Lewis’ investment portfolio.
Additionally, Charrington is a senior advisor to One Equity Partners and is a board member at engineering companies Amey and Acteon, wealth management group Avaloq AG, investment group Saranac Partners. He is also a senior advisor to UST Global, a digital technology company.
This year, Charrington was appointed to the Tottenham board as a non-executive director, and now, in Levy’s absence, he has moved up into a newly-created chairman role.
