President of Sony Computer Entertainment Italia, Corrado Buonanno, has officially left the company after 12 years.

A spokesperson for SCEE confirmed that the executive had left due to normal business and not as a result of today's earlier revelations that the European division was due to cut 160 jobs across the region.

"Corrado has been with Sony Computer Entertainment Italia for 12 years in which time we have seen PlayStation become a symbol for Italian people," commented David Reeves, chairman of SCEE.

"Buonanno leaves behind him a very strong PlayStation team, in whom we have the utmost confidence."

Reeves now takes on Buoannno's role as president of SCE Italia, while current COO of Sony Europe Jim Ryan will act as managing director.
