Change at the Cargotec helm
The Cargotec Corporation’s board of directors, elected by the members at the annual general meeting, has appointed Jaakko Eskola as company chairman. Eskola will succeed Ilkka Herlin, who has chosen to step down, having served as chairman for 17 years since 2005. Herlin will continue as a member of the board and as deputy chairman.
Eskola joined Cargotec’s board in March 2021, after a distinguished career in Wärtsilä, and was previously elected deputy chairman of Cargotec’s board of directors in March 2022.
Herlin will continue as a member of both the ‘audit and risk’ and ‘compensation and nomination’ committees. Eskola will chair the latter.
Cargotec employs around 11,000 people. (cj)
