Changes in Cramo Group management team

Cramo has appointed two new members to the Group Management Team: Mrs Petra
Schedin Stergel (47), SVP Human Resources Development, and Mr Mattias Rådström
(45), SVP Communications, Marketing and Investor Relations. Both Mrs Schedin
Stergel and Mr Rådström come from similar positions outside the Cramo Group and
will assume their position at Cramo no later than 1st October 2016. 

Mrs Petra Schedin Stergel is head of the human resource function since 2006,
and part of the management team at PwC Sweden. Together with a staff of 40
employees at the Human Capital function her responsibilities include general HR
support to operational managers, leadership development, performance management
and employer branding. 

Mr Mattias Rådström is VP Global social media and PR at Electrolux, Sweden
since 2011. He is, together with his team, globally responsible for social
media and PR strategies and platforms, content and campaign strategies and
execution, the governance structure for information and best practice sharing,
social media consumer care and digital brand monitoring. 

“Human resources development and communication are key positions in a service
company like Cramo” says Mr Leif Gustafsson, President and CEO of Cramo Group.
“We have not had a group level HRD function for some time and we have also
lacked a common responsibility for all aspects of external communication.
Making Cramo more attractive for employees, attracting the best talents and
strengthening the brand further are key areas to lift our position as a leader
in the industry to the next level. Thus I am very pleased that we have managed
to recruit such qualified persons in these two crucial areas.”
