VoIP service provider Skype announced today that its president, Alex Kazim, will be leaving the company to return to eBay where he had worked for eight years. Kazin had joined Skype when the companies merged 14 months ago, according to major news outlets, including Reuters today.
Following Kazim's exit in January, Skype's chief marketing officer and director of Country Operations Henry Gomez will take over the president role. As president, Gomez will serve as an advisor to Skype's CEO Niklas Zennstrom and the principal liaison with eBay and PayPal.
Gomez had worked at eBay for seven years, and joined Skype in November 2005 as general manager for North America. The executive has worked in building the company's US and Canadian business operations before becoming its CMO.
