Munster's Doug Howlett.

New Munster role for Dougie

Former Munster wing wizard Doug Howlett has been appointed to the role of Head of Commercial and Marketing for the province.

On retiring from the professional game in 2013 Doug has been instrumental in developing the commercial portfolio for the province in his roles as Corporate Ambassador and Commercial Manager.

Following a stellar playing career the former All Black and Munster captain displayed the same commitment and professionalism to his off-field endeavours, significantly growing the Patrons programme and associated initiatives, working closely with the Munster Rugby Commercial Board.

Moving into this senior management position Howlett will lead the Commercial and Marketing department in achieving Munster’s commercial objectives, working closely with the province’s committed sponsors while looking to drive continued success off the field.
