In recent years, Jeanette has held the role of Deputy CEO of the group and led the Nordic operations. During her 7 years in the company, Jeanette has shown clear results on both turnover and margin and has successfully conducted customer dialogues and built up the company's broad network of tech experts.
Former CEO Per-Ola Malm will now take on an overall role with responsibility for the continued Defence initiative for several companies within the Danir Group such as Pion Group, Nexer, and A Society. Per-Ola will also continue in the company as an advisor and strategic support.
– We have had a fantastic and successful period together and it is now perfect timing to hand over the CEO role for the next step in the company's development. Jeanette is a competent leader with a strong vision of how we can combine the culture that makes A Society unique with the requirements for efficient working methods and systems required to become a growth company, says Per-Ola Malm.
Jeanette Rumenius has long experience from Sigma and before that from eWork Group and SEB. She has previously been CEO of Sigma Society which, together with Assistera, formed A Society 5 years ago. Jeanette has a master's degree in economics and computer and systems science from Stockholm University. She has a strong focus on both technology and business and is a clear ambassador for A Society's values and culture. This makes her well-suited to take on the next growth period in the company's development.
– I look forward to working with our customers to drive positive societal improvement through technological innovation. Our customers are leading the way in AI, IoT, 6G, sustainable technology, autonomous systems, and many other technologies with huge potential for societal improvement. I am convinced that A Society is the right partner for everyone who wants the sharpest expertise, flexible teams, and service at the highest level, says Jeanette Rumenius.
The last two years have been successful for A Society. The company has doubled its profitability, positioned itself as a tech company in the consulting market's premium segment, and built a solid foundation for future growth in both Europe and the US.
– This move is brilliant as we can now take advantage of Per-Ola's strong expertise in Defense in all companies in the group while securing A Society's growth journey. A clear win-win and an exemplary example of a strategic succession plan as it should work in all companies, says Martin Hansson, Chairman of A Society.
