Four Seasons Health Care chief executive Jeremy Richardson has resigned his post and is expected to leave the business in April.
In a statement, Four Seasons said Richardson had successfully led the group through an operational turnaround that has seen “improved care quality ratings and profitability”.
Richardson has also provided “steady and successful stewardship across the Covid period”, it added.
Richardson was appointed chief executive for the whole Four Seasons Health Care group in December 2019.
“On behalf of the entire board of directors, we wish to thank Jeremy for a job well done over a very difficult period for the country and the industry,” said Four Seasons non-executive chairman Allan Hayward.
“The board and the management team remain committed to building upon the operational improvements delivered during Jeremy’s tenure,” he added.
