Steve Head of the queue for Charlton Athletic recruitment

According to Rick Everitt, the editor of the Voice of the Valley fanzine – Steve Head has been appointed Head of Recruitment.

Head has a reputable CV and is another member who is to join the South East London club’s new setup and will be in charge of all first team recruitment at the Valley. In taking this position, Head will be aiding whoever the manager of Charlton Athletic will be next season.

According to Steve Head’s LinkedIn, he has the following experience to his name:

Previously Steve Head was a Senior International Scout for Wolverhampton Wanderers a side which was able to ensure Championship status for next season, in which he had held the role for 10 months until his move to the Addicks.

Head also holds the role of Opposition Scouting Consultant for the England Senior Mens Team, a proud job he has taken part in, coming up three years, something he does along with his national scouting requirements.

Previously he was Chief Scout at Norwich City for 10 months, between September 2014 to June 2015, which was the season the club was promoted to the Barclay’s Premier League, deciding whether or not he had a core role in that requires speculation.

The last role which is more recent in his tenure, is at Reading FC as Head of Scouting and Player Recruitment between September 2012 and July 2014.

Other than the four roles I have mentioned he has been a Youth Team Coach at the Southampton academy between 1992 – 2002, an extensive decade with the side, as well as had a long career with Fulham FC between 2002 – 2012.

From looking at his CV and LinkedIn in particular, I think it is fair to say that Steve Head will provide extensive knowledge for the Addicks on both an international and national perspective. Something else which might be worth mentioning is the fact that he has worked alongside Nigel Adkins while Adkins was managing Southampton, who coincidentally is a favourable choice for the Addicks’ managerial role.
