Youth roles

Rudkin was appointed the Academy Manager at Leicester City in June 2003 having previously been a schoolboy in the City youth system himself when he was 16 and working as a youth coach since 1998. After working as a coach on a part-time basis Rudkin took up the full-time post of Head Coach at the then centre of excellence. During that period Leicester produced a number of outstanding talents which have progressed from the Academy to the first team – including Emile Heskey and Matt Piper.

Rudkin holds the UEFA Pro licence and has completed the Academy Director's licence. On 29 August 2007, he jointly took over managerial responsibility of Leicester after Martin Allen left by mutual consent.^[2]

Rudkin has since overseen the development of players through the Leicester City youth academy such as Andy King, Joe Mattock, Richard Stearman, Jeffrey Schlupp and Liam Moore. All five having gained international recognition in the form of either a full international cap or an Under-21 international cap.

Director of Football

On 14 December 2014, Rudkin replaced the outgoing Terry Robinson as director of football.^[3]
