Greg Beadles
President of the Atlanta Falcons
Having started with the Atlanta Falcons as an intern after earning a bachelor’s degree from Louisiana State University and master’s degree from Georgia State University, Beadles begins his 31st year with the club. He was named president of the team in 2023 after holding a number of senior executive roles over the last several years.
In his more than three decades with the organization, Beadles was a key contributor in several initiatives including being part of the team that orchestrated the transfer of ownership of the Falcons from the Rankin Smith family to Arthur M. Blank in 2001 and the development, financing and launch of both Mercedes-Benz Stadium and MLS soccer club, Atlanta United. Known league- wide as an expert in team and facility operations and finance, Beadles has built unique trust among his peers, colleagues and Blank himself on the strength of his financial acumen, business savvy, versatility and personal values.
Outside of his professional roles, Beadles is a board member of the College Football Hall of Fame; is co-founding board chair of both the Oak Hill Classical School in Dacula, Ga., and the Arete Scholars Fund, a non-profit that has awarded academic scholarships to 20,000 low-income children since 2010.
As Atlanta Falcons president, Beadles assumes day-to-day oversight of finance, operations, marketing, digital, football communications, human resources and community relations, as well as shared functions related to game presentation, retail, ticketing and premium seating sales, and service along with sponsorship and legal.
Beadles, his wife Jill, and their children (Ella, Grant, Evie, and Hudson) reside in metro Atlanta.
