The German manufacturer recently brought in former Ferrari boss Mattia Binotto to oversee the project, although he has delegated the day-to-day running of the team to Wheatley.
Wheatley has been with Red Bull since 2006 and has slowly worked his way up the ranks.
He will leave the team at the end of the 2024 season before starting a period of gardening leave, Red Bull has confirmed.
Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said of the departure: “It has been a long and successful relationship with Jonathan, over 18 years. His contribution to six World Constructors’ Titles and seven World Drivers’ Championship, first as team manager and latterly sporting director, will forever be a marker in our team history.”
