Kaizer Chiefs are pleased to announce the appointment of Mr Bheki Shongwe as the new Group Chief Executive Officer of the Club, effective May 2026.

Mr Shongwe is no stranger to the Kaizer Chiefs family. He has been serving as a non-executive director on the current Board of Directors while successfully managing his own businesses. Prior to this, he held the position of Managing Director of the Club between 2009 and 2012. His extensive knowledge of the organisation and its operations makes him well-suited to lead us into the future.

In his new role, Mr Shongwe will oversee the day-to-day running of the Club, reporting directly to the Chairman and the Board, while working closely with the heads of departments. Importantly, he will also be assisting Chairman Dr Kaizer Motaung with the overall running of the organisation, ensuring that the Club continues to thrive both on and off the field.

We welcome Mr Shongwe back to the Amakhosi fold and wish him every success in his new role and look forward to his leadership as we continue to build on our proud legacy of 56 years.
