Sportscotland has appointed Forbes Dunlop, CEO of Scottish Swimming, as its new chief operating officer.
Dunlop, who spent six years at Scottish Swimming, will take up the role in April.
“I have thoroughly enjoyed working for Scottish Swimming and it has been a real privilege to work with such a talented and dedicated group of staff and volunteers," Dunlop said.
"Their hard work alongside that of our local and national partners is why swimming continues to make progress and enjoy success at all levels of our sport.
“The role with Sportscotland is a really exciting one and an opportunity for me that was just too good to pass."
According to Stewart Harris, Sportscotland CEO, Dunlop will have a "crucial role" in shaping the future of the organisation.
"Forbes has done an excellent job at Scottish Swimming and brings with him a wealth of experience of the sporting system which will be invaluable as part of this new role," Harris said.
