Baroness Karren Brady steps down from West Ham United
Brady said she will focus on other businesses and the House of Lords after a 16-year tenure marked by a Europa Conference League title.
- On Tuesday, Baroness Karren Brady stepped down as vice-chairman of West Ham United, ending her 16-year tenure at the east London club.
- Her departure concludes a 40-year business relationship with joint-chair David Sullivan, whom she joined at West Ham in 2010 after overseeing Birmingham City's £80 million sale.
- Brady negotiated West Ham's 2016 move to the 62,500-seat London Stadium and described the 2023 UEFA Europa Conference League victory as a highlight that would stay with her forever.
- The exit follows fan protests and a £104.2m pre-tax loss for the year ending May 31, 2025, as West Ham sits 17th in the Premier League.
- Brady will now focus on her House of Lords role and other business interests, marking a significant shift from her decades-long involvement in football leadership.
