Stockhaus founded Steelwrist together with Markus Nilsson in 2005 and has served as the company’s CEO since.
The company said that this planned succession comes ahead of the next phase of development and has a time horizon of at least five years.
Following a recruitment process, Solix has appointed Jon Lind as the new CEO of both Terratech and Steelwrist, with the handover already in motion.
Stockhaus will support Lind during a six-month transition period to ensure continuity and continue as advisor to Solix.
“It has been a privilege to build Steelwrist together with all the fantastic people who have joined us over the years. I have personally interviewed the vast majority of the people we have hired around the world, and it makes me especially proud to see the team we have become and the outstanding culture we have created together,” he said.
Stockhaus added, “I would like to extend my warm and sincere thanks to all employees, partners and customers for your commitment and trust over the years. Together with you, we have built Steelwrist into what it is today.”
He also expressed his confidence in Jon Lind who he described as “down-to-earth, action-oriented and humble.”
“I’m very pleased and proud to have been entrusted with the opportunity to lead the Terratech Group and Steelwrist. Stefan and the entire team have built a strong business with a culture that I look forward to getting to know and developing further together with the employees,” commented Lind. “I want to start by listening and understanding what our customers need, what we do really well and where we can improve.”
