Martin Tocker appointed as Commercial Manager.

Ayr United are delighted to announce the appointment of the new Commercial Manager.

Martin agreed to take up the role in October and starts with the Club this week after honouring his notice period with previous employers.

His remit will see him manage and drive the commercial budget and income including advertising, sponsorship, partnerships and other opportunities.

Martin has been a regular at Somerset Park for over 25 years and comes with a background in retail, operations and business development.

"It feels like an age ago that I was offered the position but I am very happy to eventually get my feet under the table, get to know the team and understand the day-to-day running of the Club.

It's a hugely exciting time to join the Club with all the excellent work going on behind the scenes. I'm hoping I'll be able to compliment that and, going forward, help Ayr United achieve it's goals off the park."

On Martin's appointment, David Smith said: "The Commercial Manager role is vitally important to our plans for moving the Club forward and, in Martin, we feel we have got the right man for the job.

We are delighted that he's now fully on board."
