In MCC’s statement confirming his departure, Carnegie-Brown described Lavender as an “outstanding CEO”. The club said his major achievements included leading MCC through the Covid pandemic, continuing the redevelopment of Lord’s, ensuring strong financial results and delivering major matches, including the men’s 50-over World Cup final in 2019.

“It has been an immense honour and privilege to have been CEO of this great club,” Lavender said. “I have every confidence that MCC will go from strength to strength. The committed, excellent and diligent staff across the club do a superb job in support of the membership and make the MCC the wonderful club it is.”

MCC said that the club has already started the process for appointing a replacement, which will be lead by its nominations committee later this year. The club added that Lavender will “continue to fulfil his duties at MCC” to enable a “smooth transition period” before his departure.
