Salford City Reds owner Dr Marwan Koukash has revealed that chief executive Ed Farish will leave the club by mutual consent.
Farish, who is the former director of finance for the NRL in Australia, has spent just over three months with the Super League outfit.
"Ed will be going back to Australia after a hand-over period," Koukash told the Manchester Evening News. "He will be replaced by someone with no rugby background, someone who has done business development for a blue-chip company for the last 20 years.
"I made it clear when I took over that I would give people chances and I don't care who it is - a cleaner, an administrator, a player or a coach. If someone is not doing it we need to move them on. But Ed has not been sacked. I just think it is for the best."
Koukash took over the club in February this year.
