Hibs’ long-serving Non-Executive Director Amanda Jones has left the club.

She joined the Board in January 2007 and attended her final Board meeting at the end of June.

She has been appointed by the Lord President as a salaried Employment Judge.

Chairman Ronald Gordon said: “Amanda has been a valued member of the Board for many years. I’ve certainly found her good advice and sound counsel to be of great help. While we are sad to see her go, we wish her every success in this new chapter of her professional life.”

Amanda said: “I’ve enjoyed every moment of my time with Hibernian, and it has been real privilege to serve the club and its wonderful supporters. There have been one or two lows along the ways, but a lot of highs and none more than our Scottish Cup win in 2016 and the incredible reception we received the next day on that extraordinary parade.

“I wish everyone at the club every success in the future, and look forward to returning to Easter Road to continue to support the team.”
