Doha, Baladīyat ad Dawḩah, Qatar Ooredoo Group of Companies Full time
Background


As a Group, Ooredoo owns via its OpCos about 19Thsd structures in Algeria, Tunisia, Iraq, Oman, Kuwait and Qatar of which about 7.3 Thsd represent own sites and the balance represents rooftop locations.

Within the telecoms industry numerous telecom groups have carved those assets out, established own operating units that intended to attract third party tenants to drive additional profitability and with showing success in building a 3rd party business have started to either divest those activities completely at very high multiples (e.g. 13x-20x EBITDA) or have attracted outside investors via private placements and/or IPOs (e.g. Vodafone & Vantage towers).

Building an Adjacencies & Projects that is operationally viable and is able to attract high valuations would generate substantial shareholder value for Ooredoo shareholders and unlock funds to be used for other either business activities or investments of OG or for return to shareholders.

A preliminary valuation by the M&A team indicates a potential value of bn QAR for the assets in question.


The point of departure for Ooredoo Group is that those assets are currently embedded in the OpCos, operationally there had been little to no focus on cost optimization or attracting third party business nor are the organizational structures in place or the IT enablers to establish a fully viable operations.
