The club said the move comes at Davidson’s request.
Xavier Sadourny takes over as head coach, a change which had been planned for the end of the season.
“I preferred that Xavier had all the responsibilities now so that everything would be more fluid, so that he could now prepare for the future,” said Davidson.
“Xavier knows that he can count on me if needed. I have a special attachment to this club, and I will finish my mission here with total commitment.”
Castres sit eight in the Top 14, having won seven and lost seven of their 14 league games so far this season. Most recently, they beat Pau 24-19 on Saturday.
