Michael Scott has resigned as British Swimming national performance director following a review into Team GB's performance at the London Olympics.
Hard work
British Swimming Chief Executive David Sparkes said: "We are sorry to be losing Michael at this time and wish to pay a tribute to all of the hard work he has put into the programme since joining British Swimming in 2007.
"Michael's leadership has delivered some of the best results we have seen in recent years at Olympic, World, European and Commonwealth level. He leaves Britain with our sincere thanks and we wish him well for the future.
"The hunt will now begin to find a new Performance Director to initiate the recommendations within the Olympic Review and to make the next big step change towards Rio in 2016."
