Sonic Healthcare co-founder Michael Boyd has moved to a non-executive role at Jayex Healthcare, the patient engagement technology vendor that he helped list on the Australian stock exchange in late 2015.

Mr Boyd has moved to the more traditional chairman's role at the company while the CEO of its UK arm, Nick Fernando, takes up the reins of the entire listed entity. While Jayex's headquarters is in Australia, the UK market is by far the company's largest.
