Macquarie Goodman has lost a second senior member of Akeler’s management team.
Executive director Marcus Boret has quit the Australian fund manager – which bought the business park specialist for £650m in November.
Boret said: “I miss the entrepreneurial way in which we ran Akeler. Macquarie Goodman is not a company I want to have a long-term career with.”
Boret, a construction director responsible for new schemes, resigned earlier this month after 11 years with Akeler.
He was one of a four-strong senior management team that took over at Akeler in 2005 after joint founder Trevor Silver stepped down.
The quartet included chief executive officer James Cole, chief financial officer Nigel Pope and executive director Patrick Going.
Macquarie Goodman had wanted all four to remain but Cole resigned in March citing the size of the company.
He has since joined Abstract Securities, which was founded by his former boss at Akeler, Mark Glatman.
Boret said he would take a break before deciding on his future.
Windsor Richards will assume Boret’s responsibilities.
