Forshaw, a Chartered Accountant with a Master’s degree in Business Administration from the Liverpool Business School, has been appointed to a pivotal role at Everton Women. With her extensive experience in senior sports roles, including her current position as Chief Operating Officer of The Jockey Club, Forshaw is poised to bring a wealth of expertise to the team. Her appointment comes as Everton Women prepare to make Goodison Park their new home ground, marking a significant chapter in the club’s history.
Forshaw said: “She brings with her a wealth of experience in driving growth and delivering notable change across football and in the world of racing. Those credentials will be crucial as the custodian of Goodison’s legacy, and in delivering the bold vision for our new home. Her skillset is exactly what is needed to ensure our ambitions can be fulfilled on and off the pitch, and we all look forward to her arrival.”
As Everton prepares to bid farewell to Goodison Park, the club’s iconic home will now serve as the base for Everton Women. The men’s team is set to move to the newly constructed Hill Dickinson Stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock. This transition is part of a broader vision by the club’s owners, The Friedkin Group, to elevate Everton Women and establish them as a formidable force in women’s football.
Forshaw said: “It’s clear the Club’s owners, The Friedkin Group, have big plans for Everton Women, and the opportunity to lead the team tasked with bringing those plans to fruition is hugely exciting. Turning Goodison into the permanent home for Everton Women is a real statement of intent. The ambition is to build an Everton team in our new home that makes our fans proud and which challenges for honours. I’m looking forward to working with Brian Sørensen, the players and everybody at the Club as we strive to fulfil that vision.”
Forshaw’s appointment is seen as a strategic move to ensure that Everton Women can capitalize on their new home ground and the ambitious plans laid out by the club’s leadership. Her role will be pivotal in driving the team’s growth and ensuring that they compete for top honors in women’s football. As Everton Women embark on this new journey, Forshaw’s leadership will be instrumental in shaping the future success of the team.
