June Supper Club
6 June 2023
6:00 pm - 9:30 pm
Our Supper Clubs are one of our most popular events and always sell out every month. They’re informal, relaxed evenings and are the perfect mix of inspiration, good food and great conversations. They give members the best opportunity to get to know their fellow members, meeting those they’ve not met and catching up with those they do. Watch the video at the foot of this page to find our what some of the attendees said about one of our 2022 Edinburgh Supper Clubs.
This month, we’re delighted to be welcoming Bryan Redpath,
Bryan is a well kent face in rugby circles, having enjoyed an illustrious career winning 60 caps for Scotland, captaining the team 26 times and playing in 3 rugby world cups in 1995, 1999 and 2003. Prior to playing for Scotland, he captained Melrose for 2 years, South of Scotland, Scotland Under 18s, Under 21s and A games. A plethora of opportunities to hone his outstanding leadership skills and expertise!
Having announced his retirement from playing in 2005, he moved into coaching roles, spending 7 years with Gloucester Rugby, 3 years with Sale Sharks and Yorkshire Carnegie for 2 years.
Since leaving the rugby world in 2018, Bryan spent 4 years working in the deliverable Foreign Exchange Sector, advising on bespoke FX risk management strategies. An interesting development for a man who left school at 15 and last worked in business as a joiner for 8 years before turning pro on the rugby field!
“Rugby was almost everything I had ever known, you are coming out of something where you have a hell of a lot knowledge and suddenly you are a fish out of water. That’s hard. You have to accept you know nothing.”
Alongside his role with Jackson Swiss Partners, Bryan joined London Scottish as Director of Rugby in April 2022. We are all aware of the overlap between the worlds of business and sport; there is none better than Bryan to share his thoughts and insights. Having found himself captaining teams from a very young age, he had to learn fast in the most competitive of environments. A highly personable, insightful and great fun person, Bryan will share his journey with good humour and will be delighted to answer questions during his chat. Don’t miss this Supper Club with one of Scotland’s most talented and entertaining rugby icons!
