Property investment group CLS has announced that its chief financial officer (CFO) and director, Andrew Kirkman, has resigned.

Kirkman will take the role of CFO at another business.

CLS said he would remain in place temporarily to oversee the company’s half-year results in August, and to facilitate a smooth transition to his successor, before stepping down later this year.

The group said it had started a search for a new CFO immediately.

“I have enormously enjoyed my six years at CLS and want to give thanks to all the employees and the board for their fantastic support and camaraderie,” Kirkman commented.

CLS chairman, Lennart Sten, added: “I would like to thank Andrew for his dedication and diligence throughout his time with CLS and wish him well for the future.”
