In addition, Ricky Corker, who has served as Nokia's Chief Customer Experience Officer since 2021, will step down and leave the company effective June 28, 2024.
Lorna Gibb joined Nokia in 2020 and has been Nokia's Interim Chief People Officer since March 2024. Prior to this role she served as Vice President, Labor and Employment, being a member of Nokia's People and Legal & Compliance Leadership Teams. Lorna has over 20 years of experience working in people leadership roles for large scale global businesses in various industries and geographies. Before joining Nokia, she held roles as Global People Director for Skyscanner and People Partner/Director for EasyJet, where she spearheaded cross border organizational and cultural transformation. Lorna will be based in Finland and reports to Nokia's President and Chief Executive Officer, Pekka Lundmark.
"I am delighted to announce the appointment of Lorna as our Chief People Officer. As acting Chief People Officer, Lorna has already demonstrated a passion for the development of Nokia's culture, and she has a strong vision on how to develop our people function. Lorna is an experienced leader with a digital mindset and understands what is needed to attract and retain key talent in order to position us for future success," said Pekka Lundmark, President and CEO of Nokia.
"I am honored to lead our people function as Nokia continues its transformation journey as a B2B technology innovation leader. I believe that our people are what makes us great at Nokia. To enable our talented employees around the world to keep doing what they do best, I'm looking forward to leading the evolution of our culture and people strategy, providing the tools and support to drive innovation," Lorna Gibb commented.
In addition, Ricky Corker, who has served as Nokia's Chief Customer Experience Officer since 2021, will step down and leave the company on June 28, 2024. Ricky's departure follows Nokia's decision to empower its business groups with increased operational autonomy and move into a streamlined operating model, where the Customer Experience organization has been embedded into the business groups from the start of 2024. This change will enable the business groups to better seize growth opportunities with existing and new customers, and diversify faster into enterprise, webscale and government sectors.
"Ricky has been a valued member of Nokia's leadership team and the Nokia community. He has been with Nokia for over 30 years and held several management positions within the company. I want to thank Ricky for all his contributions to Nokia, not least for helping to drive Nokia's transformation and building trust with our customers throughout the years. I wish him all the best with his future endeavors," said Pekka Lundmark.
