Uber‘s London-based head of northern Europe affairs is leaving the company as the ride-hailing app fights to have its London licence renewed.
In an email to staff, Jo Bertram said:
“I’ve decided to move on to something new and exciting.”
Uber says her departure is not connected with recent events.
The company’s London licence expired on Saturday after it was deemed “unfit” to run a taxi service.
Uber’s drivers can continue to operate in the capital while the firm pursues an appeal against the decision from the regulator, Transport for London (TfL).
Uber chief executive Dara Khosrowshahi is due to meet TfL commissioner Mike Brown on Tuesday for talks.
