Former SNP MSP Andrew Wilson has rejoined the board of Motherwell FC as a director.
Wilson, 49, is a well-known figure in business and public life, as an economist and communications strategist.
He was previously on the board at Fir Park between 2010 and 2015, and was a key figure behind the 'Well Society'.
Motherwell chairman Jim McMahon told the club's website: "We conducted a review into the skill set and the make up of the board and Andrew is an excellent candidate to rejoin.
“He is experienced in both the public and private sector and is extremely well respected and connected. I am delighted we have managed to add someone of his standing.
“We will continue to review the position with the Supervisory and ‘Well Society boards around further integration of directors, following some of our recent objectives being achieved.”
Andrew will join chairman Jim McMahon, vice chair Douglas Dickie, chief executive Alan Burrows and Tom Feely on the board.
Wilson said: "It is a privilege for me to play a part in helping my club succeed and grow.
“Motherwell FC’s purpose is extremely important to its community and it is a source of great joy and improvement for many people.
“We have ambitious plans to continue its success and I rejoin at a time when I don’t think the club has been better stewarded.
“We have a tough crisis to navigate and must play an active part in getting our community and the country through it.
Motherwell chief executive officer Alan Burrows said: "I'm delighted to have Andrew Wilson back on the board.
"Despite stepping down in 2015, he has been a constant and invaluable support to me personally and the club.
"His knowledge, reputation and network will be invaluable to Motherwell FC as we set new, ambitious targets."
