Tobias has extensive experience in accounting and auditing where he has worked as CFO at Macserien and Auditor at Öhrlings PWC and Ernst & Young. He now awaits the role as Group Chief Accountant of Getupdated, which he starts on 1 June. He will also join the Group Executive Committee.
- It is very satisfying being able to tie Tobias to Getupdated, as with his background and energetic personality he fits well into the growth plan which lies ahead at Getupdated, says Åke Eriksson, Chairman of Getupdated Internet Marketing.
We thank Paul Cheetham for the time he shouldered the task of acting CFO after Håkan Juserius. Cheetham will still remain in the European Management team and be on the board of Getupdated.
What attracted you to Getupdated?
