A leading figure in the Scottish Rugby hierarchy has been dismissed following an independent investigation into his behaviour.
The governing body on Thursday confirmed CEO Alex Williamson had been fired with immediate effect after the board considered the findings of the investigation.
Williamson took up the role in early 2025 after succeeding Mark Dodson and had been on extended leave since May.

“The board of Scottish Rugby has today dismissed Alex Williamson from his position as chief executive with immediate effect,” Scottish Rugby chairman John McGuigan said in a statement.
“His dismissal follows the conclusion of an independent investigation into matters that were brought to the board’s attention earlier this year.
“In light of the investigation findings, the board of Scottish Rugby concluded that the CEO’s conduct had fallen significantly below the standards we set as an organisation.”
