BillerudKorsnäs, Solna, Sweden, reports that Karin Hågfeldt, at her own request, is leaving the company after five years as SVP, corporate human resources, and a member of the BillerudKorsnäs Senior Management Team.
"During Karin's time with BillerudKorsnäs, we as a company have undergone major changes. We have created a completely new company through the integration of Billerud and Korsnäs. Without a professional and strategic HR organization, this would not have been possible. We therefore thank Karin for her considerable efforts that has taken us to where we are today and given us the opportunity to aim for the future. We fully respect Karin's decision, although we of course regret that we no longer will be able to benefit from Karin's commitment to our continued growth journey," said Per Lindberg.
Ulrika Spåls, currently VP Operational Excellence for BillerudKorsnäs, is appointed acting SVP corporate human resources. A process to recruit Karin Hågfeldt’s permanent replacement has been initiated.
