Josh Marsh has a significant job on his hands having landed the plum role of head of football operations at Swansea City.
The 30-year-old was drafted in from Huddersfield Town following the exit of sporting director Mark Allen in April. And - working in tandem with head coach Russell Martin and chief executive Julian Winter - he is now set to play a key role in ensuring the Swans can be as competitive as possible on the pitch while operating in a sustainable manner.
Marsh will oversee the football department as a whole, although scouting and recruitment will be his key responsibilities. He has significant experience in those categories having held various roles with the likes of Huddersfield, Wolves and Southampton.
