Fedorenko has accepted a new opportunity with an agency, although the date around his United exit is still to be finalised.
The decision is said to be amicable, with Fedorenko keen to ensure a smooth transition to help the young players and their families.
It comes just over two weeks after Stephen Torpey started work as United's new head of academy, following the departure of Nick Cox to take over as technical director at Everton.
Since the end of last season, Under-18 coach Adam Lawrence also left the club and both the Under-21 side's assistant coach David Hughes, and his replacement David Horseman have both left to join Newport and Arsenal respectively, although results at both age groups this season have been impressive.
Fedorenko was a key figure in bringing striker Chido Obi and defender Ayden Heaven north from Arsenal. Both made first team appearances last season.
Fedorenko was also involved in a number of promising youngsters - including Bendito Mantato and JJ Gabriel - joining the club.
