Ray Jones has resigned from his role as chair of the British Association of Social Workers.
The former director of adult and community services at Wiltshire Council cites a clash between himself and BASW's chief executive Ian Johnston for the reason behind his resignation.
A statement from BASW said that it was recognised by all that the relationship between chief executive and chair should "function without difficulty".
Jennifer Orgill will be the new chair.
