Vasaloppet’s CEO to leave
  • Post author:

 “It is with mixed feelings that I now choose to leave Vasaloppet for an assignment within the SkiStar group. It feels though that this is the right point for a new force to take Vasaloppet further into the next phase, together with the marvellous staff who know how an operation at this level should be run. I can only wish Vasaloppet all good fortune and a continuing positive development towards new goals,” summarises the departing CEO Jonas Bauer.  

 We begin immediately a recruiting process to find a successor, whom we hope can be in place when Jonas leaves Vasaloppet September 1.”
