JazzCash CEO Atyab Tahir has decided to step down from his position with immediate effect.
According to internal communication of the company seen by ProPakistani, JazzCash CFO Murtaza Ali and the leadership team at JazzCash will run the operations of the company until a replacement is announced.
In a note to the staff, Jazz CEO Aamir Ibrahim said that he along with VEON Ventures CEO Khairil Abdullah will remain available to extend any required support.
Tahir had taken over as the CEO of JazzCash in May this year. Before joining JazzCash he was working as Country Manager MasterCard Pakistan & Afghanistan. He has also held senior positions at Fidelity Investments, HBL, Telenor Bank, and easypaisa.
JazzCash is the number one digital financial services provider in Pakistan and a division of Jazz, a VEON Group company.
Seems like Jazz offers CEO level internship in its JazzCash division :-)
2nd CEO appointed and gone in a year time.
9th in the last 3 (I think) .. its become a joke now.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
Good luck finding another competent CEO. The hunger for power and retaining control (of the unit that is the future) by some (not going to take any names) has only negatively impacted the employees and the brand. Shameful
There is something seriously wrong going on within jazz – no half decent organisation goes through turn over at this level like we’ve seen with Jazzcash.
This should be investigated
High pressure job and tough kpis, very few can keep composure and deliver results.
Also, not a propakistani type story; well managed by company PR team
