LONDON (Alliance News) - Customer experience management services company SDL PLC on Friday said its founder and chief executive will leave the company at the end of the month.
Mark Lancaster will step down from the board and his chief executive role with immediate effect and will leave the company on October 31. Lancaster founded SDL in 1992. He moved from CEO to executive chairman in 2010 before returning to the CEO role in 2012.
SDL said it will shortly start identifying suitable candidates to replace Lancaster and David Clayton, its non-executive chairman, will become executive chairman on an interim basis.
"With Mark stepping down, new leadership will be appointed to take the company to the next phase in its development," Clayton said.
The company confirmed that its trading for the full year 2015 remain in line with its expectations.
