Metsä Board CEO Mika Joukio to Step Down; Esa Kaikkonen to Replace Him

Mika Joukio, CEO of Metsä Board Corporation, will step down on April 7, 2025, after a long tenure with the company. Esa Kaikkonen, currently Metsä Group's EVP of Strategy, will succeed him as CEO. Joukio will stay on until October 2025 to support Kaikkonen during the transition. Kaikkonen brings 27 years of experience within Metsä Group, having previously served as CEO of Metsä Tissue Corporation and EVP of Metsä Wood. Metsä Board, a leading producer of paperboard products, is well-positioned for continued development, thanks to recent investments under Joukio’s leadership.
