Managing Director David Wingfield and Commercial Director Kyle McGrory have left the company with immediate effect.
Their roles are now being covered by executive Managing Director Steff Battle.
The Enquirer understands Wingfield and McGrory had been suspended by Wates while an internal investigation was carried-out into their conduct.
Wates declined to confirm the exact nature of the investigation.
A Wates Group spokesperson said: “We can confirm that David Wingfield and Kyle McGrory have left Wates Construction, with immediate effect.
“In the interim, their responsibilities will be covered by Steff Battle, executive managing director Wates Construction, to ensure continuity of operations.
“We have no further comment at this time.”
Wingfield joined Wates in 2005 working his way through the ranks to become MD in 2024. McGrory had been with the firm since 2019.
