Glaston has appointed Hannele Anonen (49) as SVP People and Culture and a member of the Executive Management Group. She will take up her position on 1 August 2021 and will report to President & CEO Anders Dahlblom.
Anonen joins Glaston from Rexel Group, where she has served in various Human Resources management positions in the country and corporate organizations. She started at Elektroskandia in 2002 and moved to Rexel Group in 2008 along with the Elektroskandia acquisition. Anonen has nearly 20 years of strong experience in HR, communications and development positions.
“It is a pleasure to welcome Hannele to Glaston to develop the company and our people and culture agenda,” said President & CEO Anders Dahlblom.
Taina Tirkkonen, the company’s current General Counsel and SVP Human Resources, will continue as the company’s General Counsel and a member of the Executive Management Group.
On 15 January 2021, Glaston announced an appointment to this same SVP People and Culture position. This appointment will not come into effect, however.
