Zimbabwe’s teleconverge telcos TelOne is recruiting for 3 senior roles. Chief Commercial Officer, Head of Strategy & Transformation, and Head of Communications & PR are positions up for grabs.Applications close 1 July 2026 for the CCO and 13 July 2026 for the other two roles. All positions are based at Runhare House, Harare to lead growth in 5G, IoT, cloud, AI, fintech and digital services, and to steer the state-owned operator’s next phase of transformation by appointing executives to integrate sales, product, customer experience, strategy and corporate communications.
The parastatal confirmed it is looking for a “dynamic and visionary leader” for the Chief Commercial Officer position. The CCO will be tasked with unifying sales, marketing, product development, customer experience and digital monetization to deliver sustainable growth and competitive advantage.
According to the job posting on ApplyNow, the CCO will be central to TelOne’s push into next-generation revenue streams. These include 5G rollout, Internet of Things solutions, cloud services, artificial intelligence, fintech platforms and broader digital services as competition in Zimbabwe’s ICT market intensifies.
Applications for the CCO role close tomorrow Tuesday, 1 July 2026. Interested candidates have been directed to apply via https://applynow.co.zw/2026/06/22/telone-3/.
In a separate advert posted on 29 June 2026, TelOne also opened applications for two other executive posts: Head of Strategy & Transformation and Head of Communications & Public Relations. Both roles are also based at Runhare House in Harare.
The Head of Strategy & Transformation will be expected to shape TelOne’s long-term roadmap, drive internal change, and align operations with Zimbabwe’s digital economy goals. The Head of Communications & PR will lead reputation management, stakeholder engagement and public messaging for the telecoms giant.
Applications for the strategy and communications roles close on Sunday, 13 July 2026. Details and applications are available at https://applynow.co.zw/2026/06/29/telone-4/.
The recruitment drive comes as TelOne positions itself for a more competitive, data-led market. With 5G trials, fibre expansion and digital service bundles in focus, the operator is signalling a shift from legacy telco to a technology and services company.
Industry watchers say the three hires will be critical to TelOne’s ability to execute on growth, manage public perception, and navigate transformation in a sector being reshaped by AI, cloud and mobile money convergence.
