(Sharecast News) - Research and data analytics group YouGov announced on Monday that Alex McIntosh will step down from his position as chief finance officer and from the board in order to pursue other opportunities, with immediate effect.

McIntosh, who has been with the company for nineteen years, including eight years on the board as CFO, will be succeeded by James Davies from 12 February. Davies will initially serve as CFO on an interim basis.

He has previously held group CFO positions at the likes of OVO Energy and Monzo Bank.

Chief executive Stephan Shakespeare said: "Alex has been instrumental in driving YouGov's growth and transformation from a small research agency with less than 100 employees to a leading international research and data analytics group with a workforce of over 3,000 employees today. It has been my great pleasure to work alongside him during this time."

As of 1040 GMT, YouGov shares were up 1.22% at 208p.
