Nexer Group is now carrying out one of its most significant leadership transitions in many years as Martin am Zoll assumes the role of CEO of the group. The appointment marks the start of a new chapter for one of Sweden’s most rapidly expanding international tech companies. After eleven years in the role, Lars Kry steps down from the position and will remain in an advisory capacity, providing the company with both continuity and renewal at a time when global digitalisation is accelerating.
Martin am Zoll has been a driving force within Nexer for several years, leading business units with both technical and strategic responsibilities, including Kairos Future. That broad experience has given him a deep understanding of customer needs, changing markets and how Nexer can position itself in an increasingly competitive global technology environment.
A background aligned with Nexer’s ambitions
With more than twenty years of leadership experience in business development and digital transformation, am Zoll has developed a strong capacity to lead customer-focused organisations with a long-term perspective. His leadership is grounded in close relationships with clients and partners, clear and down-to-earth communication, and a firm commitment to delivering business value in every project.
On taking the role, he emphasises the importance of stability, innovation and ongoing customer dialogue: “I look forward to taking on this role and continuing to build Nexer’s growth journey. Nexer benefits from stable, long-term owners and a clear vision for how we will lead digital development alongside our customers, combined with very strong consulting expertise across many areas. Together we will keep delivering real business value for our clients,” says Martin am Zoll.
His long-standing relationships within the organisation have created strong internal trust and a natural leadership style that combines business strategy with deep technical insight.
The board’s view on the CEO appointment
Chairman Fredrik Hedlund underlines that am Zoll was the obvious choice: “Martin has the right experience, mindset and values to lead Nexer into its next phase. With deep insight into both the business and customer needs, he has demonstrated a strong ability to drive the group forward effectively and successfully, making him the natural choice for the role,” says Hedlund.
Nexer is operating in a phase where demand for digital development and advanced technology is higher than ever. The organisation’s ability to scale internationally while maintaining close client relationships will be crucial for future success. Am Zoll’s leadership aligns with these needs and strengthens the company’s position both in the Nordics and globally.
Strengthened leadership with clear roles
As part of the transition, Nexer is further strengthening its executive team by appointing two deputy CEOs to support the group leadership:
• Maciej Reutt
• Jon Carvell
These two leaders complement the executive team with international experience, operational strength and broad expertise across technology and business development. Together they form a leadership team tasked with advancing the company’s Promising Future vision and continuing to develop Nexer as a strategic partner for some of the world’s most complex organisations.
