Equity Story Group’s (EQS) CEO Trent McGraw has resigned from his post and has commenced his handover to the executive team.

Mr McGraw, who has also stepped down as director, said the decision to move on was difficult.

In his statement to the ASX, he told investors it was “the right time,” having spent the past year focused on executing the IPO and delivering on key milestones.

“I am glad to be moving on from EQS with this important work completed,” Mr McGraw said.

“With this now behind us we have now cleared the way, without distraction to focus on revenue and growth from the core business activities.”

EQS Chairman Ben Loiterton said Mr McGraw contributed to the growth and ASX listing of Equity Story, and called his efforts in the past two years “especially remarkable.”

While the search for a new CEO is underway, Executive Director and founder David Tildesley will assume the role of acting CEO.

However, this will not affect the material terms of his existing contract.

Equity Story Group shares last traded at 4 cents on December 14, 2022.
