With this appointment, Tim Pennington, previously appointed interim CFO, will revert to an advisory position in the company.
Hageman said: “I am excited to join Telia, which has a unique position in the Nordics and Baltics. The positive impact from digitalisation for societies, public and private sector players, and consumers alike, have never been more important, and I am excited to continue the work with Allison and the team to drive profitable growth across the company and create value for all of Telia’s stakeholders.”
