Reuter will move into an advisory role at the club, with sporting director Marinko Jurendic taking over his responsibilities.
"In the last weeks and months, we’ve had a lot of conversations about setting the course for a new direction and creating improved structures for FCA. After nearly 11 intense years, masterminding the last transfer window and introducing sporting director Marinko Jurendic, this is now exactly the right time for me to pass on my responsibilities," said Reuter, who has worked as Augsburg's managing director since January 2013.
"I will remain available to the club and its leaders in an advisory capacity and continue to support this intended new direction in this role. I’m excited for this new challenge and am convinced that we will successfully shape the future of FCA together in this set-up."
