Hide AdShe said: “We announced to shareholders and staff that the pier is entering a period of restructuring.
“After a full year of trading, it is clear that the pier is not self-funding in the current structure.
“On that basis we have entered talks with our stakeholders to look at a new business structure going forward.
“Regrettably that has meant a small number of redundancies.
“I have decided to step down as CEO for personal reasons but have agreed to assist with the transition going forward.”
