[4][5] Former long-distance runner David Moorcroft, previously Chief Executive of the British Athletics Federation, continued in the same role at the newly formed UKA.
The results in Gothenburg (their sole gold medal coming in the 100 m relay) were below expectations and failed to meet the target for improving British athletics in preparation for the upcoming 2012 London Olympics.
[7] Moorcroft's departure triggered a restructuring of the organisation and the creation of the role of chairman, to which businessman Ed Warner was appointed.
[11] Van Commenee stepped down after the London 2012 Olympics due to the team's failure to meet the medal target he had set.
[17] Denise Lewis was elected as the organisation's president in December 2023, succeeding Jason Gardener,[1] but stepped down temporarily from the post in February 2024.
