Board of Directors
The KWH Group’s Board of Directors has eight members and a secretary. Several of the members are shareholders, which ensures a strong link between owners and the company’s governance, regardless of whether the owners are represented in the operational management or not.
The Board’s task is to be responsible for the Group’s management on behalf of the owners and to ensure that operations are managed efficiently and in accordance with good business practice. The Board establishes the business strategy and strategic goals and oversees risk management and administration.
By combining the values of a family business with structured strategy work, the long-term perspective is preserved while the Group can adapt to changes in the market. This working method creates continuity and stability, a foundation that has been crucial for the KWH Group’s long-term success.

Group Management
The KWH Group’s management team consists of the heads of the business divisions, the CEO, and managers from the parent company. Each member is responsible for their own business division or group function, while the Group President leads the joint development work and acts as a support for the others in management.
The task of the management team is to implement the Board’s decisions in practice and create clear frameworks and a common direction for the organisation. By structuring, prioritising and following up on operations, it ensures that the Group’s goals and strategies are realised on a day-to-day basis. Group management also has an overarching responsibility to ensure that operations are conducted in line with the Group’s values and governing policies. The sustainability perspective is a natural part of decision-making and is integrated in business strategies, ensuring that financial goals are combined with long-term responsibility.
