Park and two more on Rangers board step down after takeover
It's been announced the board has been reconfigured with Graeme Park, Julian Wolhardt and former chairman Alastair Johnston stepping down. They will be replaced by Americans Mark Taber, Andrew Clayton and Gene Schneur. And there will also be new leadership at the top. Fraser Thornton will give up his role as chairman to Andrew Cavenagh, althought the whisky supremo will remain on the board while 49ers Enterprises' boss Paarag Marathe will be vice chairman. Chief Executive Patrick Stewart will also retain a place at the top table, with John Halsted and George Taylor also sticking around. Most of these are names we know fairly well by now, but here's what we know about the lesser-heralded Taber, Clayton and Schneur. Who is Mark Taber? Mark Taber is a managing director at Great Hill Partners, a growth equity firm based in Boston. Taber is said to specialise in healthcare investments and has served on or currently serves on the boards of more than a dozen healthcare companies. He is a trustee of Boston Medical Centre's HealthNet health plan and sits on its finance committee. Who is Andrew Clayton? Andrew Clayton is a Co-Founder and Vice Chairman of ParetoHealth, the health insurance company founded by Andrew Cavenagh. He serves on many business and philanthropic boards and committees, and got his degree from Swarthmore College in economics. Who is Gene Schneur? Schneur is a board member and co-owner of Leeds United. The Florida based businessman is currently the Managing Director and Co-Founder of SBV RE Investments LLC, a real estate firm specialising in multi-family residential properties. From 2004 until its sale in 2023, he co-founded and led Omni New York LLC and Omni America LLC, which ranked among the leading developers of affordable housing in the United States. Under his leadership, Omni expanded to over 800 employees and developed or acquired 94 properties comprising more than 19,000 affordable housing units, with total transaction values exceeding $4 billion. Before establishing Omni, Schneur worked as a Mergers and Acquisitions attorney at Olshan Grundman Frome Rosenzweig & Wolosky LLP in New York.
