Vodafone Qatar says appoints Gray as CEO with immediate effect

DUBAI, Dec 1 (Reuters) - Vodafone Qatar has appointed Ian Gray as chief executive officer with immediate effect, the loss-making Vodafone affiliate said on Tuesday.

He replaces outgoing CEO Kyle Whitehill, who will leave Vodafone to pursue other opportunities, a company statement said.

Gray joins from Vodafone Egypt, where he was chairman.

Whitehill joined Vodafone Qatar as CEO in June 2013, having worked for the Vodafone group (NasdaqGS: VOD - news) since 2001.

Vodafone Qatar has yet to make a quarterly net profit since ending state-controlled Ooredoo's domestic monopoly in 2009.

Its losses had been consistently diminishing, but that trajectory has faltered of late, reporting widening year-on-year losses for the past four quarters.
