British Cycling CEO Jon Dutton will leave his current role this summer to become the new CEO of the British Olympic Association (BOA), it was announced on Monday.
Dutton took over at British Cycling in April 2023, and has since guided the governing body to income growth at a time of declining membership.
“It has been a tremendous honour to lead British Cycling through such an important and ambitious period of change,” Dutton said in a press release.
“I am incredibly proud of what we have achieved together – strengthening our organisation, delivering meaningful impact in communities, and laying foundations that will support the sport for many years to come.
In 2024, Dutton oversaw the governing body’s move to rescue the men’s and women’s Tours of Britain after the previous organiser went into liquidation. He is also said to have played a “fundamental role” in securing the UK’s Tour de France Grands Départs for 2027.
Commenting on Dutton’s departure, Frank Slevin, chair of British Cycling said: “During his tenure at British Cycling, Jon has delivered a significant programme of change – including the publication of our bold new strategy in 2024, securing a new lead commercial partner in Lloyds and continuing our programme of modernisation.
“The organisation is now better equipped to serve its members, support elite performance, and grow participation at every level across the country than at any point in recent memory.”
