Hurring who has been at the company for more than 15 years is said to be leaving because of management differences with Kyle Whitehill Vodafone UKs enterprise business unit director according to sources close to the situation.
A Vodafone spokeswoman denied reports of strife in the department however. She said: "Richard Hurring is leaving the company because he has been offered a job with creative technical agency Marvellous Mobile."
His departure follows the surprise exit of Vodafone director of enterprise sales Chris Huggett last month who was also believed to have clashed with Whitehill.
Hurrings departure follows a long list of high-profile exits from the company over the past 12 months.
Marketing manager Peter Bamford left the company in March and finance director Ken Hydon left last year. Other notable departures include senior manager for business partnerships Jason Rigby and head of dealer sales Iain Graham.
With the retirement of Sir Julian Horn-Smith and Lord Ian MacLaurin from the board in July there are few of Sir Christopher Gents "Newbury boys" left at the company.
Gent who oversaw the firms rapid expansion in the 1980s and 1990s also symbolically severed all ties with Vodafone in March by stepping down as president for life after he reportedly disagreed with CEO Arun Sarins management policy.
Hurrings departure at Vodafone will further fuel rumours of unrest at the company as it tries to regain the confidence of its investors. This follows a rocky few months for the company that included the sale of Vodafone Japan in March.

Phonesafe head Peter Hall said: "It seems there is a double-edged sword when it comes to mobile communications. Mobile phones have made communications easier but they have also allowed us to have more control over who we choose not to communicate with."

"The spare market is unpredictable and can often reach saturation and the retail environment doesn´t favour older handsets" explained Vodafone liquidation manager Simon Griffiths.
According to the network the decision has had unprecedented success. Sales recoup 60 to 70 per cent of a handset´s cost price as apposed to an average of 30 per cent using traditional selling channels.
"We really needed to initiate a new way to move these less fashionable handsets quickly with maximum returns" said Griffiths.
"The reserve price on eBay means we´re guaranteed to achieve a minimum price online. And subsequent use of the handset provides us with another revenue stream in airtime usage."
Logistics is being handled by Marketworks in conjunction with Royal Mail.
Marketworks international vice-president Kyle Antcliff said: "Vodafone was looking for a new and effective cost-recovery solution for its end-of-line handsets. The outsourced Marketworks/ Royal Mail solution using eBay has achieved excellent results with up to 3000 handsets a week being sold directly to consumers through this new channel."

Newing was responsible for BenQ´s marketing strategy throughout western Europe. He will oversee Benefon´s regional marketing activities.
"Jeremy will help us win our planned market share in each region" said Bate. "Simon will implement our product roadmap over the next two years. They will secure the success of TWIG."
