The head of Uber Technologies Inc.’s U.K. business is stepping down amid a contentious fight with London regulators who are threatening to ban the company in the British capital.

Uber said the decision to leave by Jo Bertram, the general manager in charge of Uber’s business in the U.K. and Northern Europe, isn’t related to the recent move by transportation authorities to revoke Uber’s license in the city. Bertram said she’s leaving for a new job outside Uber.
