Catherine Raîche[1] (born 1989) is the vice president of football operations for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League (NFL). She has also held front office positions with the Montreal Alouettes and the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League (CFL); and in the XFL Tampa Bay front office.
Early life and education
In 1989, Raiche was born in Montreal, Quebec. She completed a degree in law at the Université de Sherbrooke[2] and a master's degree in tax.[3]
Career
Raiche began her career in law in 2012 practicing for the Quebec Bar Association. From 2012 to 2015, she worked in business law for a Montreal firm.[2] In 2015, Raiche changed her career and began working in sports for the Montreal Alouettes as an intern.[3] Later in the year, she became the coordinator of Football Administration for the Alouettes in December 2015.[4] Raiche's appointment to the Alouettes made her the first woman to become a personnel executive in the CFL since the hiring of Ottawa Rough Riders general manager Jo-Anne Polak in 1988.[5]
Raiche was a coordinator until January 2017 when she was promoted to assistant general manager alongside Joe Mack for the Alouettes.[6] At the time, she was the only female assistant general manager in the CFL and was the first woman to become a CFL assistant general manager.[2] She remained with the Alouettes before resigning in December 2017.
After resigning from her position with the Alouettes, Raiche became the Toronto Argonauts' director of football administration in January 2018.[7] She left the Argonauts in April 2019 for a front office position in the XFL, at Tampa Bay,[8] reuniting her with head coach/general manager Marc Trestman who was relieved of his duties with Toronto in November 2018.[9][10]
On July 25, 2019, Raiche was hired as football operations coordinator by the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFL.[11] She was then promoted to the position of vice president of football operations for the Eagles on May 27, 2021. With her promotion, she became the highest ranking woman in the NFL in personnel in history.[12][13][14]
