Gullane Welcomes New Club Secretary

Gullane Golf Club is delighted to announce that Richard Beswick has been appointed as the new Secretary. Richard will join the Club in early January 2026 from Caldy Golf Club on the Wirral where he held the role of General Manager.

During a long and successful career in commercial sales and business development, Richard played off a 6-handicap and was Caldy Club Captain in their centenary year of 2007. He was then approached to take up the General Manager position at Caldy in 2019 after he led a comprehensive member driven strategic review of the club.

Richard is excited to be making the move north and starting a new life in Gullane, “As one of the very few private clubs with three wonderful links courses, I am looking forward to leading the excellent team at Gullane to enhance its reputation as one of the leading member clubs and golf destination in the UK.

Club Captain Colin Steele commented, “We are delighted to appoint someone of the caliber of Richard as the Secretary of Gullane Golf Club. He comes with extensive golf club management experience and I know he is very keen to hit the ground running and continue the excellent progress the club has been making in course condition and customer service over recent years.
