BIOGRAPHY
Heather Rabbatts is the former Executive Chairwoman of Millwall Football Club. She saw the job as being in three parts: spearheading regeneration in the area, modernising a stock market listed company and trying to transform a football club which has had what she calls 'a challenging reputation'.
Heather rose to prominence as CEO of the London Borough of Lambeth, known as 'the worst job in local government'. She injected a more dynamic and forward-thinking culture, with new efforts in housing, education and council tax collection.
As Head of Education for Channel 4 she was responsible for commissioning programmes and developing the channel's education business. She has served as a Governor of the BBC and the LSE, a Trustee of the British Council and an associate of The King's Fund. For four years she was a non-executive Director of the Bank of England and she was a member of the Board of the UK Film Council. She is currently a Non-Executive Director of one of the UK's biggest property companies and landlord Grosvenor, and of Cross London Rail Links.
Heather speaks on leading and managing change, the changing nature of public service broadcasting and communications strategies. She has appeared on Question Time and Newsnight and is also a regular contributor to Radio 4.
