Share
Doug Crawford has resigned as chief executive officer of Personal Touch after almost two years at the firm.
He says he is leaving to further his career outside of financial services and will remain with the business to handover to Max Wright, a non-executive director on the Personal Touch board, who will take over his role until a permanent replacement is recruited.
Crawford says: “I am proud that I leave behind one of the strongest management teams in the financial services sector.
“The network is in great shape and the team are implementing a four-year strategy, which will continue to differentiate it from everyone else in the market. I know Personal Touch will continue to be successful and I wish the team well as they continue to take the business forward.”
Wright says: “Doug has done a great job in building a solid infrastructure for the business to face the challenges the changing financial service sector is bringing.
“On behalf of the board I would like to thank him for his hard work and leadership and our best wishes as he moves to take up his next challenge. We have started the search process for a replacement and in the meantime it is business as usual through a highly motivated and capable management team.”
Crawford took up the role of CEO at Personal Touch in April 2010, taking over from John Ruddick. Prior to that he was CEO at Absolute Invoice Finance, part of Aldermore Bank.
