Experience, perspective and hands-on execution.
In Finnish, “Apaja” is a place where opportunities can be found. The name suits us well!
Throughout my career, I have worked with a wide range of companies and organisations, from growth companies and SMEs to large international groups. My finance leadership experience spans technology and industry, insurance and financial services, service businesses and audit.
Different companies and situations have taught me that finance cannot be led with a single standard model. I adapt proven practices to the company’s size, situation and needs.
The best solutions come from listening, discussing and working together. I value clarity, a practical approach and a straightforward way of moving things forward.
