Is Head of Commercial similar in role to Commercial Manager then? Wouldn't that be constructive dismissal - actively recruiting the replacement for someone who is already there?
Gotta say though, that recruiting agent is a bit of an idiot..

Could be that they were always going to hire a manager above her and she is unhappy with that and the fact that the agency would consider her an ideal candidate for the role has broken the camels back.
I had heard that she resigned at the same time as Mel Baroni ie after the infamous Roland Rant and assumed it was for the same reason.
As she had been in post longer she had to work he notice until the end of the season.
Clearly the agency have, if Airman's story is correct,, messed up badly but why are CAFC recruiting for a commercial manager without involving or even telling the current Head of Commercial?
Maybe that she did resign over the Roland Rant and Charlton employed a useless agency to fill the post. I'm sure the whole story will be in VOTV sooner or later.
One of our many decent, resident recruitment professionals will be along in a minute to explain more about how this could have happened/what it means etc. etc..
Agree it's a BAD mistake by the recruiting agency, but what is the head of commercial doing that's so bad? Surely if those in leadership positions at the club are unhappy with commercial relationships they need to be looking a lot closer to home.

Even if that's the case, it's not a complete non story. Her resignation, regardless of the circumstances, speaks volumes about the management of the club.

Everyone I know who's encountered Fiz only has good words to say about her. I wish her well - and respect to anyone who resigns from this administration.
I was chatting to one of the club sponsors at the sponsors' day, and he was scathing about the sheer number of commercial managers he'd had to deal with in the last couple of years. Including one who claimed he was recruited specifically because he had no knowledge of football.
I read it that she resigned after being approached about filling the job she already held
That is clearly how it has been written however, Henry Irving believes she MAY have resigned after RD did his rant on the website which would mean she is working her notice and knows that she is being replaced.
And if that is what has happened, then it's still funny: The professionals the club hired to match-make for the role then find the perfect match in the one person that just resigned from the role.
Only knew her from the last FF video but she came across as pretty decent. Oh well, one great big rebuilding job will need to happen at some point - let's hope sooner rather than later...
Seems like the ideal job for Guy Luzon, am sure he's desperate to get back in the network and work for Mr. Roland Sir again - they would save on the cost of a desk as well as he could just crouch in his office.
I bet the agent that phoned Ms. Weller was Dudu Duhan - it all adds up.

I once had to train my replacement after resigning.
Basically woman looking for a new job mistakenly asked by recruitment company if she was interested in the one she had resigned from.
