At CERTEGO, we have taken an important step to further integrate sustainability into our business strategy. As part of this effort, we have recently hired Björn Persson as Head of Internal Control and Sustainability.

Björn brings with him a solid background in finance, corporate governance, and risk management from his previous consulting roles, including stints at PwC and Grant Thornton.

Björn will focus on strengthening our internal processes and structures, with a particular emphasis on improving and systematizing internal control and risk management, while also working on our sustainability efforts.

"I am really looking forward to my journey at CERTEGO. It will be incredibly exciting to get to know a company from the inside, rather than always viewing companies through a consultant's lens," says Björn Persson, whose new job title will be: Head of Internal Control and Sustainability.

CERTEGO's sustainability work focuses on reducing carbon emissions, creating a safe, inclusive, and attractive workplace, and ensuring business ethics and social responsibility throughout the value chain.

"Björn will work closely with the operations and management teams to drive this work forward. By integrating sustainability goals into business planning, every initiative will contribute to long-term business value, both for us as a company and for our customers," says Tomas Lindgren, CFO at CERTEGO Group.
