Another high-up person at Uber has left the company. Jim Callaghan, Uber\u2019s general counsel for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, recently stepped down,\u00a0Recode reports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

His departure, which an Uber spokesperson told TechCrunch is due to personal reasons, is the latest in a series of departures at Uber this year.\u00a0In the last few months, Uber has also lost its VP of global vehicle programs<\/a>,\u00a0head of comms<\/a>, president<\/a>, head of AI Labs<\/a>, VP of growth<\/a>\u00a0and SVP of engineering<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Callaghan\u2019s departure comes a couple of days after Uber decided to promote\u00a0Salle Yoo from general counsel to chief legal officer<\/a>. Uber is actively looking for a new general counsel, who will report to Yoo once they come on board.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve reached out to Uber and will update this story if I hear back.<\/p>\n
