Evocutis chief executive steps down

The chief executive of skincare specialist Evocutis is to leave the company.

Dr Stephen Jones, who will remain at the company for a further six months until a new chief executive has been appointed, is to take up a position at another company in an unrelated healthcare business.

Chairman Tom Bannatyne said: “We are grateful for Stephen’s contribution in bringing Evocutis together, and he leaves the group well positioned for continued growth, as the commercial roll-out of our product and service offering accelerates.

“We are also pleased that Stephen has agreed to stay on in his post in order to minimise any disruption to customers, and to the business as a whole. We wish him well in his future endeavours.”
