ScS chief financial officer Mark Fleetwood has quit the furniture specialist following its near £100m takeover deal last year.
Fleetwood, who joined the retailer in September from fashion brand END Clothing, is currently working his notice period.
It is understood that he joined ScS last year partly because of its listed status, which led Fleetwood to hand in his resignation after it was taken private in January.
His departure comes as chief executive Steve Carson left the business this month after overseeing ScS’s departure from the London Stock Exchange at the start of the year following the take-private deal up by Italian furniture retailer Poltronesofà in October.
