Change in Dustin’s group management team

Report this content

Dustin strengthens the organisation for continued profitable growth by creating greater clarity within the segments and further increasing the scalability of the support functions. The organisation is also adapted to the expansion in the Netherlands. As a result, changes are made to Dustin’s group management team, which implies new roles, while some functions are no longer part of the group management team.

- The new organisation strengthens our position for continued profitable growth and further expansion both in the Nordics and in the Netherlands. We create the prerequisites for maximizing the potential within the company. By having the best offerings and creating clear support functions, we can be a strong IT partner to our customers, regardless of market and segment, says Thomas Ekman CEO Dustin.
