Komplett ASA: Thomas Røkke appointed new CFO
Sandefjord, 21 September 2022: Thomas Røkke has been appointed Chief Financial
Officer (CFO) of Komplett ASA, effective from 1 March 2023. Mr Røkke will
succeed Krister A. Pedersen, who has decided to resign from his position. Mr
Pedersen will remain CFO of Komplett ASA until Mr Røkke takes up his new role in
order to ensure a good transition.
"I want to thank Krister for his valuable contribution as CFO during a
transformational period for the Komplett Group. He played an instrumental part
in Komplett ASA's listing on Oslo Stock Exchange and in the recent acquisition
of NetOnNet, which has doubled our market position," says Lars Olav Olaussen,
CEO of Komplett.
"I am pleased to welcome Thomas Røkke to the management team. With his
background and experience, he will play an important role in Komplett's value
creation going forward," Lars Olav Olaussen adds.
Since December 2018, Thomas Røkke (54) has held the position of Group CFO of
Saferoad. He previously held similar senior positions at FristadsKansas Group
(formerly Kwintet), headquartered in Sweden, and the Danish diversified food
business Løgismose Meyers. Further, Mr Røkke has broad international experience
in operational management positions and strategy consulting. He holds a master's
degree in addition to a PhD in Finance & Accounting from the University of St.
Gallen in Switzerland.
"I am very thankful for three eventful years in Komplett and for me it feels
right at this stage to explore other opportunities outside the CFO role. With
its online-first business model, leading cost position and synergy potential, I
rest assured that Komplett is well positioned for future growth and value
creation," says CFO Krister A. Pedersen.
