Saudi Telecom Company has appointed Khaled al-Ghoneim as group CEO. Ghoneim will take up his new post on June 18, replacing Saud al-Daweesh, who resigned in April. At the time, Daweesh would remain at the helm until October, but the company has appointed his successor sooner than expected. The company announced that its board, during its assembly on June 5, agreed to the appointment of Khaled Al-Ghoneim as CEO of the group.
