Jim worked in various roles with Glasgow Warriors' for over 12 years until earlier this year. Jim built up Glasgow's Business Club portfolio and played a key role in introducing international players to the city, when they first arrived at Scotstoun.
Jim was awarded his MBE for services to charity and sport in the 2015 Queen's Birthday Honours List, in recognition of his work with the Hearts & Balls rugby charity, both in fundraising and supporting rugby players who - like himself - had suffered serious injury playing the game.
