Prior to joining Gunnebo, he has held leading positions within quality and supply chain at ABB and the AF-Group.
- Lars Thorén, SVP Operations, will as a consequence of the organisational change of merging manufacturing into the respective product areas leave his current position and the Group Executive Team.
