RSS569 Sensys Traffic is moving into what it calls a new phase with the appointment of a new CEO. Torbjörn Sandberg, currently a member of the company’s Board of Directors, is replacing Johan Frilund, who will assume responsibility for strategic business development following this change.

Having established itself in the market, the company is now entering a new phase in which the focus is on growth, both organic and through acquisitions, continued internationalisation and business development. After seven years as CEO, Johan Frilund will be assuming responsibility for the implementation of a number of the company’s strategic projects.

“We want to grow, both organically and through acquisitions, and to further develop the company. We will continue to grow internationally and reach a number of new markets, while at the same time we need to expand our product portfolio with new services,” says Sensys Traffic chairman Gunnar Jardelöv.

“Johan Frilund has played a major role in the company’s successes. He has built up our strong market position, which we will now continue to further develop with a new CEO. As Johan can now focus on business development, we can make the most of his valuable knowledge of the company and the market,” says Gunnar Jardelöv.

Sandberg has more than 20 years’ experience in senior positions in the field of data and telecommunication, and has been on the Board of Sensys Traffic since 2012.

He says, “This is an exciting assignment, and I look forward to leading Sensys Traffic into the next, expansive phase.”
