Diurnal makes directorate changes as CEO steps down

4 April 2022

UK endocrine diseases specialist Diurnal Group (AIM: DNL) today announced that, following 14 years with the company, Martin Whitaker has decided to step down as chief executive (CEO) and a member of the board of Diurnal, with immediate effect, to enable him to pursue other business opportunities.

Consistent with the company’s vision to become a leading specialty commercial endocrinology company, the board has initiated an international search for a new CEO with strong commercial credentials. Richard Bungay, currently the company’s chief financial officer (CFO), who has been with the company for more than five years, will immediately assume the role of Interim CEO until a successor is appointed.
