Background

About Niklas Berntsson

I don’t like to advertise this but I would do my job for free. As the President, Europe and a senior executive at Plasman I play a key role in a global automotive solutions company focused on sustainable and innovative products. There are over 4500 team members working together at Plasman across 24 locations and across 9 countries as One Company and One Driving Force. Together we believe that what separates the impossible from the possible is perspective and that more important than where you’re going, is who you get there with. For most of my working career I have led automotive purchasing strategies for large public and privately held international organizations. This is a fascinating part of the OEM manufacturing sector that serves as the backbone for successful organizations. Now with over 22 years of leadership and operations experience behind me I can take pride in saying that I have made significant contributions to this innovating industry. When I am not focused on kaizen, cost strategy, customer and development, I am outdoors often running, cycling, skiing or refereeing and coaching floorball.
