MOSCOW, April 27 (Reuters) - Russia's second-biggest mobile phone operator Megafon said on Wednesday its Chief Executive officer Ivan Tavrin would leave, effective April 29.

The board of directors has proposed that the company's shareholders approve Sergei Soldatenkov as Tavrin's successor for a three-year term, it said in a statement.
