Scarlets announce departure of CEO

Scarlets have confirmed that Darran Phillips will be stepping down as CEO of the region at the end of December. 

Phillips, who became CEO of the Scarlets in 2014 following his time as a Director of global fund manager Threadneedle Investments in the City of London, said: “I have very much enjoyed my time at the Scarlets and it’s been a pleasure to have been working back in Wales.” 

The Scarlets will not look to replace the CEO position and a new Executive Management Team has already been established. Jon Daniels continues to head up all rugby matters with Phil Morgan, previously Finance Director, assuming responsibility for all commercial and business operations matters as COO.
