The reason for the Sheriff being placed on gardening leave is still unclear, but he is understood to still be employed as McLaren Automotives managing director.
McLaren Automotives chief operating officer Mike Flewitt is undertaking Sheriff's duties while he is on leave. It is not clear if Sheriff will return to work for the company.
US-born Sheriff joined McLaren from Fiat a decade ago to oversee the launch of McLarens road car division, and was the helm for the launch of the firms first two models, the MP4-12 c and 12 c Spider, as well as the presentation of the P1 concept car at the Paris motor show last year.
