After the departure of Hatim Bamtaraf, Nadeem Khan was named as the interim CEO of PTCL.
ISLAMABAD – Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL) has selected veteran executive Muhammad Nadeem Khan, who will serve as the interim CEO of the company for the next 14 days.
PTCL announced an unexpected change at the top, appointing Mohammad Nadeem Khan as its interim chief executive officer (CEO) for a period of 14 days following the departure of Hatim Mohammad Bamtaraf.
The appointment was formally disclosed in a notice submitted to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) on Thursday, July 2, 2026, with Khan taking charge immediately.
Nadeem Khan currently serves as Group Chief Financial Officer (GCFO) of PTCL Group, overseeing the financial operations of both PTCL and Ufone 4G. With nearly 30 years of corporate experience, Khan is one of Pakistan’s most experienced business executives. He spent the last 20 years within the PTCL Group, playing a key role in the financial management of the company and supporting its growth as one of the leading telecommunication providers in the country.
Khan serves on the Board of Directors of U Microfinance Bank Limited, reflecting his extensive presence in the corporate and financial sectors of Pakistan. His professional credentials were further recognized in May 2023, when the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan (ICAP) appointed him to its Accounting Standards Board (ASB) for a four-year term. In this capacity, he contributes to the development and implementation of Pakistan’s accounting standards by helping to review the adoption of the new International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
While the telecom company has not disclosed the reason behind the 14-day temporary appointment nor announced a permanent successor, the leadership transition puts one of the group’s most experienced executives at the helm during a critical period for Pakistan’s telecom industry.
