Meet the Chamber Board

the support of our Board of Directors is invaluable to our Chamber. Find out more about the team in our series of Meet the Chamber introductions.

Rachael Taylor

Legal Director, Russell-Cooke Board Director of Wandsworth Chamber

Rachael advises on a wide range of corporate matters, including mergers and demergers, the sale and purchase of private companies (including MBOs), distressed/ administration sales, borrowing and refinancing, and shareholder, partnership and joint venture agreements.

Rachael’s experience covers a broad spectrum of business sectors, including real estate, hospitality, care, consumer goods and health & fitness. She works with various clients and is comfortable advising both large corporate concerns and owner-managed businesses.

Before training as a lawyer, Rachael worked as an HR professional giving her an additional insight into how businesses operate, as well as an understanding of legal principles applying to employment situations (and TUPE in particular).

Rachael qualified in 2007 and joined Russell-Cooke in April 2017 after working for 10 years at a major London firm.

“Having joined the Board of the Chamber in the past year, I’ve really welcomed being able to have more input into the Chamber’s activities, as well as getting to know my co-Directors better,” says Rachael.

“As a firm, we want to do what we can to support local business, and as a Director I can hopefully offer more in a personal capacity as well. There’s lots more to come this year and I’m looking forward to getting back to it after the summer break.”

Rob Kelly

CEO of The Displayways Group of Companies Board Director of Wandsworth Chamber

Rob Kelly is CEO and owner of The Displayways Group of Companies, a UK-based visual communications and large-format print and signage business serving the heritage, commercial, film & TV, and events sectors internationally. With over 30 years of industry experience, Displayways companies bring expertise, strategic insight and creative solutions to every graphics, signage and event project – from major museum exhibitions to bespoke event environments.

“After becoming a Patron Member of the Wandsworth Chamber of Commerce, I was invited to join the Chamber board by CEO Beverly Corson,” says Rob.

“While Displayways operates internationally, I wanted to support the local economy. Post-Covid, I was keen to engage with fellow Wandsworth businesses, strengthen relationships with local suppliers, and identify new client opportunities. My role on the Board reflects my belief in fostering local networks to drive sustainable growth and collaboration within the borough.”

Marc Newey CEO of Roehampton Club Board Director of Wandsworth Chamber

Marc Newey has been managing sports clubs for 40 years and has been CEO of Roehampton Club for the past 17 years. He heads up a team of 150 looking after 5,000 members who enjoy a range of sports, including golf, tennis, squash, padel tennis, croquet, swimming, gym and fitness classes as well as more eclectic activities such as art, photography, backgammon, snooker and bridge.

He is very active in the development of new managers through the Club Management Association of Europe (CMAE) and has mentored many to have successful careers. He is married with two children and three grandchildren and wants to spend more time with them all from next year.

“I enjoy working with my colleagues on the Chamber Board and networking with other Wandsworth businesses,” he says.

“It’s a thriving area of SW London and good for Roehampton Club to become more integrated within its local community.”
