Artturi Mikkola, Jukka Kanerva, and Carl Nyberg will join Neste’s leadership team on April 1, 2026, as the company restructures its organization around its Renewable Products business.
Mikkola will serve as senior vice president, Renewable Products Feedstock Sourcing and Trading; Kanerva as senior vice president, Renewable Products Refining; and Nyberg as senior vice president, Renewable Products Commercial, the producer of renewable fuels announced today.
The appointments are part of an organizational change that will also bring commercial, refining, and feedstock sourcing and trading functions from the Renewable Products segment into the leadership team. The company will also establish a Renewable Products, North America business unit, with Nyberg serving as interim president while a permanent leader is sought.
Neste said the changes are designed to strengthen the execution of its renewable fuels strategy and support long-term growth. The company will maintain its current financial reporting segments.
“I warmly welcome Artturi, Jukka, and Carl to Neste’s leadership team,” President and CEO Heikki Malinen said. “They all have strong track records in their respective areas and have held several demanding leadership roles across Neste.”
Neste, a Finland-based producer of renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel, operates production facilities on three continents and is expanding its renewables production capacity to an expected 6.8 million tons annually by 2027. The company also produces oil products at its Porvoo refinery and operates nearly 1,000 fuel stations across Finland and the Baltic region.
