ARI TOIVANEN HAS BEEN APPOINTED CHIEF OPERATIONS OFFICER

Changes to the management team of Mantsinen Group’s Material Handling Machinery business unit.

As of August, Ari Toivanen (M. Eng.) has been appointed as the Chief Operations Officer of the Material Handling Machinery business unit (MHM). Ari’s area of responsibility includes the order fulfilment process of material handling machines and attachments, all the way from the reception of sales orders to the shipment.

Ari is part of the MHM unit’s management team and he reports reports to Mia Mantsinen, the director of the business unit.

Mantsinen continues to carry forward its growth strategy. The business order backlog remains strong, and operations are expected to continue growing in 2024. Preconditions for growth have been established, for example, by strengthening the organization and implementing a new ERP system in early 2023.

Ari has 20 years of experience in such areas as production, material management, and quality management at John Deere. “It has been a pleasure to join the operations of Mantsinen. The beginning has been very interesting, getting to know and work with great products and people.”

Other members of the MHM business unit’s leadership team and their responsibilities are: Patrik Starck, Sales + Product Management; Vesa Jauhiainen, Services; Simo Huovinen, Product Development and Design; and Janne Pölönen, Finance.
