Bristol City begin search for new CEO by posting job advert revealing candidate requirements

Bristol City have started their search for a new CEO by posting the lucrative position on the networking and job search portal LinkedIn.

The ad went online on Tuesday and at the time of writing just 24 hours later, has received 119 applicants according to the website. City are looking to replace Richard Gould who will take up his new role as the Chief Executive of the ECB following the January transfer window.

They will be big boots to fill with Gould playing a key and integral role in financially stabilising the club over the last 12 months. As well as helping to trim the wage bill by £5million, he has also played an important role in bringing the Former Players' Association to light alongside Neil Palmer and Scott Davidson and helped enhance relations between the club and supporters.
