Minni Lempinen, former CFO of Endomines Plc, will join KH Group Plc as chief financial officer on Aug. 17, 2026, to help the company hone its focus on heavy machinery.

Lempinen succeeds Tommi Rötkin, who will leave the company by June 3 after serving as CFO for two years, while Pekka Raatikainen will act as interim CFO during the transition period, the owner of KH-Koneet announced today.

Lempinen joins KH Group as the Helsinki-listed company continues its strategic transformation from a private equity-focused firm into a heavy machinery-focused corporation. She was awarded the Future CFO of the Year 2025 by the Nordic Listed Leaders. She previously worked as group business controller at the mining company, auditor at Business Finland, and group finance manager at Solwers Plc.

“Minni brings strong experience and knowhow to KH Group as our company is on a strategic journey to transform from a stock listed private equity company to a corporation focusing on heavy machinery,” said CEO Carl Haglund, who joined KH Group last year.

KH Group is a Nordic industrial company focused on sustainable construction and critical infrastructure through its KH-Koneet construction machinery business and Nordic Rescue Group rescue vehicle manufacturing unit. It sold its majority stake in Indoor Group, a Finnish furniture and interior decoration retailer operating the Asko and Sotka chains, last year to focus on more profitable businesses.

“I am pleased to join KH Group at this time of change which gives the opportunity to build the future of the company,” Lempinen said. “We will continue to implement the strategy firmly by focusing on strengthening the core business, by streamlining the corporate structure and by increasing profitability.”
