Building Global Connections

An accomplished football professional with a near 40 year career in the game, David has
had a significant impact across multiple areas of the industry since retiring from the field.
A league title and European Cup winner with Liverpool, David initially made the
transition into football agency and talent identification – unearthing a number of talented
young players that helped both his own and other businesses exceed £1million in
revenue.
Combined with these roles, he has also assumed control of Darlington FC on three
separate occasions as First Team Manager – not only repeatedly securing the club’s
League Two status under strict financial restrictions, but also generating critical
funds through the development and re-sale of several free signings.
Alongside the global experience gained across a number of other roles, David offers a
highly knowledgeable, commercially astute and tactically innovative point of
leadership to a club or football organisation seeking forward thinking direction.
