Aaron Knowles is set to move from the group executive, product role into a non-executive position. 

Iress chief executive Andrew Walsh said Mr Knowles “expressed a desire to step aside… so that he can achieve greater balance in his professional and family life”. 

“Aaron also wishes to remain within Iress in a non-executive role, which will be finalised in the coming months,” Mr Walsh said.
