Deloitte Australia CEO to Resign, Citing Job’s ‘Personal Cost’

Deloitte Australia’s CEO is resigning, just a week after the Big Four firm’s U.K. diversity chief stepped down following allegations of bullying.

Richard Deutsch, the head of Deloitte Australia, will be leaving his job for unspecified personal reasons, the firm said in a statement Thursday. He will remain in his position until a successor has been appointed.

• “We have navigated the greatest health and economic crisis of our generation and secured the future of the business while continuing to serve our clients with distinction. But this period has come at some personal cost,” Deutsch said in an emailed statement.
