After a successful inaugural National Premier Leagues season the Fire continues to push ahead with the expansion of the Club’s operations.
Managing Director Noel Woodall announced today the appointment of Andy Watson as the Club’s new Commercial / Marketing Manager.
Andy has been involved in football for over 40 years as both a player and a coach and has spent 10 of those years here on the Sunshine Coast, including coaching at the Fire.
Mr Woodall said Andy seemed an ideal choice for the recently created position as Commercial / Marketing Manager and he would be able to draw on more than 25 years’ experience working in the finance or motor industries.
He has held the role of National Manager of a finance company as well as General Manager of motor dealer franchises.
Some of Andy’s initial responsibilities will be to build upon the foundations already created for the Club, particularly in the areas of expanding supporter membership, sponsorship, international marketing (including tours – in-bound and out-bound), international tournament marketing and the Club’s new international academy.
Mr Woodall said Andy was already a member of The Fire family and would become a great asset to the Fire and the development of its ever-increasing activities on and off the football field.
