Tim Parkinson will head up Umbro’s global marketing after a move from the company’s new owners Nike.

Umbro

Parkinson was Nike’s Southeast Asia marketing director but has moved home to Manchester to become global chief marketing officer.

Umbro were bought out by the sport’s giant and the switch means he will still effectively be employed by Nike.

He’s spent six years at the company with two year’s in his previous role.
