Fiona Le Poidevin has resigned as chief executive of Guernsey Finance.
She will leave in early 2015 to become chief executive at the Channel Islands Securities Exchange (CISE).
Jim Gilligan, chairman of Guernsey Finance, said: “The board is disappointed that [Le Poidevin] has tendered her resignation but we would like to thank her for the invaluable contribution she has made to Guernsey Finance.”
“Since [Le Poidevin] joined us nearly four years ago, her commitment and professionalism have been exemplary and she has been instrumental in helping drive the agency forward during the last two years in the role of chief executive.”
The board has already commenced the recruitment process to identify Le Poidevin’s successor and the activity for the second half of the year is already planned, including visits to Asia and the Americas in the final few months of 2014.
Le Poidevin joined Guernsey Finance as technical director and deputy chief executive in early 2011 and succeeded Peter Niven as chief executive in July 2012.
“Leading Guernsey Finance has been a huge honour and a tremendous experience. I would like to thank the board and the team at Guernsey Finance for their support during my time here and now it is vital that I leave Guernsey Finance in a strong position and ensure a smooth transition to my successor,” said Le Poidevin.
