In connection with Rutger Arnhult taking over the role as CEO of Castellum he will leave the position as Chairman of the Board and member of the Nomination Committee with immediate effect, but remain as Board member. At the same time, the current Board member Per Berggren is appointed Chairman of the Board until the annual general meeting 2022. Biljana Pehrsson leaves the role as CEO with immediate effect.
“Biljana Pehrsson has over time developed Kungsleden into a strong property company that highly complements Castellum’s offering and future development. However, the Board and CEO Biljana Pehrsson have not agreed on the strategy going forward in order to build the Nordic region’s leading commercial property company with a focus on the most interesting growth regions. The Board has therefore decided to appoint Rutger Arnhult as CEO with immediate effect. We are convinced that Rutger will lead Castellum and the forthcoming integration work with a focus on what is best for all stakeholders. His task will now be to create a stable and profitable platform for Castellum's continued growth journey,” says Per Berggren, Chairman of the Board of Castellum.
“Castellum is today one of the Nordic region's leading commercial property company with presence in the most intreresting growth regions. I am grateful for the trust from the Board and look forward to working together with all employees, and through a successful integration, to strengthen Castellum's competitiveness in the Nordic real estate market, both financially and operationally,” says Rutger Arnhult, CEO of Castellum.
