Amid conjecture that the Blues boss was in line to be the next to go as the shakeup at the under-performing franchise continues, Redman announced his resignation from the top job in a media release on Tuesday.
A search for a successor capable of leading the franchise out of its seemingly permanent place in the basement of New Zealand rugby will begin immediately.
Redman joined the Blues in October 2013 and during that time presided over a succession of lowly finishes in Super Rugby. They have not placed better than 9th overall (in 2017) during his time in the role.
