YouGov PLC on Monday said Chief Financial Officer Alex McIntosh is stepping down after 19 years at the company ‘to pursue other opportunities’. The move is effective immediately, though McIntosh will continue to support management ‘during his notice period to ensure an orderly handover’, YouGov noted. Chief Executive Stephan Shakespeare said of McIntosh: ‘Alex has been instrumental in driving YouGov’s growth and transformation from a small research agency with less than 100 employees to a leading international research and data analytics group with a workforce of over 3,000 employees today.’ The London-based research and analytics firm has hired chartered accountant James Davies as interim CFO, effective from Thursday. ‘James will join the steering team of senior executives and will not serve on the board of directors at this time,’ YouGov added. Davies has worked at Close Brothers Group PLC and Deutsche Bank AG, as well as digital lender Monzo Bank Ltd, and most recently served as CFO at Ovo Energy Ltd. YouGov shares were up 1.2% to 207.91 pence on Monday morning in London. Copyright 2026 Alliance News Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
