Sally Horrox has been appointed as World Rugby's director of women's rugby, the global governing body announced.

Horrox will take up her new post in May, just months away from the Women's World Cup in New Zealand, after leaving the international sports and brand consultancy which she co-founded in 2015.

Her role is a slightly re-modelled one to the one fulfilled by Katie Sadleir, who left her post as General Manager of Women's Rugby to become the chief executive of the multi-sport Commonwealth Games. "I'm delighted and hugely privileged to be joining World Rugby to lead what is regarded as the most significant area of growth for the game globally," said Horrox in a World Rugby statement.
