Telia Company today announces changes to its Group Executive Management team through the merger of the Communications, Brand and Sustainability functions, appointing Ola Rembe as Senior Vice President, Head of Communications, Brand and Sustainability. Ola will assume his position at Telia in March.

Allison Kirkby, Telia Company President and CEO, says: “Telia’s role in providing the Nordics and Baltics with the region’s most secure and reliable digital connectivity has never been more important. I am delighted to welcome Ola Rembe to our Group Executive Management team.
