Diös’ board, through Bob Persson, Erika Olsén and P-G Persson, immediately begins a recruitment process.
Knut Rost, CEO, Diös
- That I leave as CEO of Diös after 10 years feels both natural and wistful at the same time. It has been a fantastic and successful journey where we have built the company to become a leader in our market – northern Sweden. This could not have been possible without the good cooperation and trust I have received from the owners, the board and our employees over the years. Together, we have created the company’s growth, which has taken us to where we are today. I am grateful for all the years as CEO of the company. Now it is time for me to make room for something else in my professional life. I will remain as CEO of the company during 2024 or until a new CEO is in place and will of course follow Diös’ continued growth journey, says Knut Rost, CEO of Diös.
- During his 10 years at Diös, Knut has led the company in a very strong growth phase where our property values increased from SEK 12 to 31 billion. We have a strong position and our cities are leaders in the green transition that industrial Sweden is now in. This guarantees a continued strong demand for commercial premises and properties in our market. Knut has also created a strong business culture among our employees. The board is now starting the process of recruiting a successor to continue driving the company forward, says Bob Persson, Chairman of the board of Diös.
