Today, Remedy has revealed that Santtu Kallionpää will be joining their core management team as their new Chief Financial Officer.
Kallionpää joins Remedy from another iconic Finnish company, Fazer, known best for their chocolate, confectionary, bakery, and other cupboard staples, where he was the VP of Finance and Business. Fazer is a tad older than Remedy; created in 1891, the company employs over 6000 people, across the Nordics and beyond, with a growing international consumer base.
On his new role at the studio, Kallionpää said, “I am excited to join such a world class gaming company with very interesting future opportunities. I look forward to working together with the talented Remedians."
He replaces Remedy's former-CFO, Terhi Kauppi, who left the company in June 2024 for new adventures at Evitec Solution.
Talking about the new addition to the team, Remedy's CEO, Tero Virtala stated, “I am delighted to welcome Santtu Kallionpää to Remedy and our core management team. In addition to his financial expertise, he is experienced in consumer business ranging from steering strategic projects to business development and performance management of key operations. These are valuable competences and relevant skills for Remedy. Santtu will be a good leader and collaborator with both our game and support teams.
