According to his LinkedIn, Faith began a new position as chief financial officer at marine property company Aquavista earlier this month.
While Booths finds a permanent replacement for Faith, head of finance Damien MacDonald has been named acting CFO.
During his time at the northern supermarket, Faith was also responsible for IT, compliance and property, which will now be taken over by managing director Nigel Murray.
The news comes as it emerged that Booths will axe self-service checkouts in its stores to bolster its reputation for customer service and premium store experience.
