Taking his place in the interim is Alan Freer, who has an intimate knowledge of the company and has previously served as a board member and as acting CEO.
Hastings is currently recruiting for a new CEO, and stated that Boulton was committed to achieving a smooth transition to Freer while the company searched for his replacement.
