She was formerly the chief executive of Sheffield Wednesday from 2018-2019, and the chief executive of Charlton Athletic from 2014-2017. Her time at Charlton coincided with widespread supporter protests and dissatisfaction and relegation to EFL League One. During her tenure at Sheffield Wednesday, she was praised for providing stability and productivity to the club.[2]

Early career

Meire studied law at University of Leuven, completing her LLM in 2007. She continued her studies in Competition Law at University College London for a further year.[3][4] She has worked for law firms Olswang and Baker & McKenzie in the area of competition law, particularly mergers and acquisitions and cartels.[2][5] In 2016, Meire was awarded the Laureaten VRG-Alumniprijs.[6]

Football

In 2011, Meire provided legal advice to Roland Duchâtelet, involving TV rights issues with Sint-Truidense V.V.; Meire is a supporter of Sint-Truiden.[7][8] Meire's involvement in football continued when she worked as the "Legal and International Relations Manager" for Standard Liège, another club owned by Duchâtelet.[9][10]

Charlton Athletic

After Duchâtelet's purchase of Charlton Athletic in 2014, Meire was appointed as the Chief Executive of the club.[8][11] She was one of only a few female club executives at the time.[8][12] Meire commented on this saying that she didn't believe she was treated differently for being a female chief executive, adding that "people are quite receptive to the idea of a woman chief executive."[12]

In September 2016, season ticket sales had fallen to 6,297, from 10,278 at the same time the previous year.[13] In January 2015, Meire was confronted on a train about the appointment of manager Guy Luzon after Charlton lost 5–0 to Watford; Meire claimed that there were 20 applicants for the job, including former Charlton manager Alan Curbishley. After the incident, Meire said fans should "accept how we run the club".[14][15][16]

That same year, Meire was appointed as one of four Football League representatives to the FA Council. She was subsequently re-elected the following summer, in August 2017.[17]

In May 2016, Meire claimed she had received "extreme abuse" from Charlton fans, particularly after the club's relegation to League One for the 2016–17 season; some fans turned up to Meire's parents' house in Belgium, and she also claimed some supporters had committed criminal offences against her.[18][19] A few days beforehand, there had been protests aimed at Meire during Charlton's last match of the 2015–16 season.[20]

During her time running Charlton, the club underwent eight managerial changes[21] and was relegated to League One, the third tier of English football.[22] The club were particularly successful in the transfer market during her tenure at the club. Nick Pope, a future England international, broke into the first team during the 2015-16 season before being sold to Burnley for £1 million.[23] Andrea Lookman was sold to Everton for a divisional record of £7.9 million during the 2016-17 season[24], having made a name for himself the previous season following a breakthrough from the club's academy. The sales were credited with Charlton announcing their first profit in thirteen years.[25]

Meire left her Charlton Chief Executive role at the end of December 2017.[26][27].

Sheffield Wednesday

On 1 January 2018, Meire was named Chief Executive of Sheffield Wednesday, with the club then in 16th position in The Championship. [28] She has been described as a 'steady influence' at the club'. Meire has credited this to the fact she is "away from the forefront of the club compared to my previous club".[29] On 11 February 2019, Meire and the club announced in a statement that she had vacated her role as Chief Executive Officer - sacked after 13 months in charge. Meire praised the "fantastic support" of the club's fanbase, and told the club's website that she "felt a warm welcome from everyone at the club and the fans at games and around the city".[30]
