Change in the Fiskars Group Leadership Team: Niko Haavisto appointed new Group CFO, Jussi Siitonen to leave the company after transition period
Fiskars Corporation has today appointed Niko Haavisto as Fiskars Group's CFO and member of the Group Leadership Team as of August 10, 2026. Niko Haavisto will report to Jyri Luomakoski, Fiskars Group's President and CEO. Jussi Siitonen, current CFO and deputy to the CEO, will leave the company after August, following an orderly transition, to pursue new opportunities outside the company.
Niko Haavisto has earlier served as CFO at Nokian Tyres Plc and CapMan Plc.
"The past five years at Fiskars Group have been an exciting journey with great brands and colleagues in a turbulent economic environment. With the transition to the current structure of two operationally independent Business Areas and the related legal entity restructuring now successfully completed, this is a natural time to hand over to the new CFO who will lead the next phase of shaping Fiskars Group's financial strategies," says Jussi Siitonen.
"I would like to thank Jussi for the excellent cooperation during the past years. He has played a pivotal role in transitioning the Group to the current structure, and I wish him the best of success in his future plans. I am happy to welcome Niko Haavisto to our team. With his background as CFO of two listed companies, one of them being a private equity sponsor, he has the experience and relevant track record for our structure," says Jyri Luomakoski, Fiskars Group's President and CEO.
"I am excited to join Fiskars Group, which is known for its iconic brands. I look forward to shaping, together with our teams, the Group's role as an effective portfolio and capital steward," comments Niko Haavisto.
