Mr. Jouni Pitko (b. 1959) has been appointed Managing Director of Tulikivi Corporation with effect from 16 April 2013. He comes to Tulikivi Corporation from the position of Vice President, Electromechanical Lock Cases at Abloy Oy, and he has a wide range of experience in successfully managing business activities. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanics.

Mr. Pitko has international experience in managerial positions in the United Kingdom and in France.  He has also managed export operations at Abloy Oy.

“In Jouni Pitko, Tulikivi will gain a Managing Director with international experience and considerable competence.  In the past few years, Tulikivi’s operations have seen a considerable amount of reshaping, as unprofitable businesses have been discontinued and core business processes harmonised. This is a great starting point from which the new Managing Director can take the company forward,” says Matti Virtaala, Chairman of the Board of Directors.
