Alliance Trust Savings (ATS) chief executive Robert Burgess has resigned from the group.
Mr Burgess, who also sat on the firm’s board, joined ATS in 2009 to oversee a programme of modernisation of the business.
The group said it was now “well placed to take advantage of the opportunities in the growing retail savings market”
Alan Trotter, finance director at Alliance Trust, will oversee the day-to-day running of ATS until a replacement is appointed.
Lesley Knox, chairman of Alliance Trust, said: “[Mr Burgess] has instigated a major repositioning of the business resulting in good growth.
“He has built an experienced management team who are in a strong position to capitalise on the opportunities provided by the Retail Distribution Review.”
