In the aftermath of yesterday’s sudden departure of Ikon National CEO Dan Johns, STW has this morning confirmed the departures of two of his key lieutenants, the company’s national digital director Ellie Rogers and people and culture director Leonie Kerley.

Sources have also told Mumbrella that there have also been other senior departures including data analytics director Bevan Davies. STW says it unable to confirm this departure at the moment.

The company would not comment on the reasons for the departures but said it hopes to announce a new CEO as early as next week.
