Tom Shea gave up his position as chief executive and a director of the Jigsaw board on 15 August following illness last year, from which he is now recovering. He will remain as an advisor to the board and will continue his involvement with a number of Government advisory groups, including the working group currently looking at developing a vocational degree in childcare.
Mr Shea said, 'We have been building up a strong infrastructure and management team to make sure the framework is as sturdy as the foundations. Nursery managers now report to Jane James, our development director. I would have preferred to step down six months to a year later, but my health took a turn for the worse last year. I'm absolutely confident that nothing can stop Jigsaw now.'
