Mr England-Hall joined RealNZ, Wayfare, in February 2021 - prior to that, he spent almost four years as Tourism New Zealand’s chief executive.
Under his leadership, the Queenstown-based company restructured, rebranded, refinanced, recapitalised and regrew revenues, including a capital raise which introduced private investors to the closely held family company for the first time.
Chairman Martin Dippie said that meant RealNZ would enter the second half of this financial year "materially ahead of plan".
Mr England-Hall, who intended to return to Auckland where his family lived, said the time was right to pass the reins of the company to a new leader.
"I’d like to thank the Queenstown, Wānaka, Te Anau and Southland communities for their support of RealNZ during my time with the business and for making me a welcome member of the community.
"I’d also like to acknowledge the faith investors and the Hutchins family placed in me and my leadership team to enable the company’s revival.
"I wish them all the very best for the path ahead."
