On the announcement of Ian Maxwell as the new SFA Chief Executive, SPFL Chief Executive Neil Doncaster said: “This is clearly a crucial appointment for the SFA and for Scottish football more widely.
“Ian combines a superb track record of innovation and delivery as an administrator with a well-earned reputation as a ‘football man’.
“He is highly respected at all levels of the game and will command respect amongst clubs, fans and other partners. Having seen his positive impact on our SPFL Competitions Working Group, particularly driving change in the Betfred and IRN-BRU Cups, everyone at the SPFL is really looking forward to working with him for the good of the game.”
