Domino’s Pizza is to lose its chief executive Lance Batchelor who is leaving to take the helm at over-50s travel and insurance firm Saga.
The group said it had begun the process to find a replacement for Batchelor who will stay with the business until 30 April 2014 to help with an “orderly handover”.
Commenting on Batchelor’s departure Domino’s chairman Stephen Hemsley said: “Lance has been offered a new role in a significant private equity backed company and as a result has tendered his resignation. His new company operates in a non-competing sector. We are sorry to be losing Lance and thank him for his contribution to the continued growth of our business over the last three years.
“We wish Lance every success in his new role.”
