The Livery Autumn Dinner is a Black Tie event, in the traditional style with a top table and sprigs. We are delighted to announce that Jim Mullen, CEO of Reach Plc, the largest commercial news publisher in the UK and Ireland, will be the guest speaker at this event.

Jim has over 30 years experience in a wide variety of sectors, from technology and software, media and advertising, both digital and traditional, retail, gaming and international business. He has led businesses and operations in the UK, US, EMEA and APAC regions. He was Managing Director of Ladbrokes Digital, Chief Operating Officer and Director of International Business at William Hill Online and Director of Digital Strategy and Product at News International. 

Prior to joining Reach in 2019 he was Chief Executive of Ladbrokes PLC and Ladbrokes Coral PLC, after the merger between Ladbrokes and Gala Coral. He is currently the Senior Independent Non-Executive Director of Racecourse Media Group and Non-Executive Director of PA Media.

Jim has some strong views on the importance of an independent press in modern society and when not talking about this, expect his other passion for all things Scottish football, especially the trials and tribulations of Celtic Football Club and the Scottish national team, to feature.

Pre-dinner drinks will be served from 6.30 pm in the Court Room with guests seated in the Hall for dinner at 7.00 pm. A three course meal with wines, coffee and port will be served. The dinner will conclude at 10.15 pm, followed by a Stirrup Cup (after dinner bar) in the Court Room. Carriages will be at 10.45 pm.

Tickets are £100 inc. VAT and there is no limit to the number of guests you may bring. Spouses and partners are welcome to attend. Applications will be dealt with on a first come, first served basis.

If the Livery Autumn Dinner is unable to take place, refunds will be issued.
