Ooredoo has appointed Noor Al-Sulaiti as CEO of Ooredoo Oman, making her the first woman to hold this position in one of the group’s key markets. The telecom provider also appointed Bassam Yousef Al Ibrahim as CEO of Ooredoo Algeria. Both appointments came into effect on May 20, 2021.
Noor Al Sulaiti has been with Ooredoo since 2004, most recently as the CEO of Starlink, a subsidiary of the Ooredoo Group. In her most recent role as CEO of Starlink, she made a significant market impact by rebranding and expanding the company’s portfolio and capability to compete in E-Commerce, retail, and ICT. She was previously the General Manager of Phono and Fasttelco in Kuwait. Noor Al-Sulaiti brings 17 years of progressive and rotational experience in the telecom industry. She takes over for Ian Dench, who resigned after a successful 15-year career with the Group.
Bassam Al Ibrahim was appointed CEO of Ooredoo Algeria in March 2020, following his earlier appointment as Deputy General Manager of Ooredoo Algeria in March 2020 and successfully steering the company through the COVID-19 period. Despite a challenging macroeconomic environment, Ooredoo Algeria delivered a healthy set of results during the first quarter of 2021 under his leadership. Revenues increased by 2% in local currency in Q1 2021 compared to the same period the previous year.
Sheikh Faisal Bin Thani Al Thani, Chairman, Ooredoo Group, said: “I am very happy to announce the appointment of two of our outstanding talents to lead our companies in Oman and Algeria. These appointments come as part of our strategy to continue to invest in our finest people, as we push forward with our digital transformation journey and create a more modern, efficient and agile way of work. I am particularly proud of the appointment of the first female CEO, one of many Ooredoo female leaders who have stepped up and delivered during the most difficult times. Congratulations to the new CEOs. I wish them success during their tenure.”
The management of Ooredoo wishes the new appointees all the best in their new roles.
