Ponsse plans to renew its operating model globally

The planned new global operating model aims to strengthen Ponsse’s long-term competitiveness, efficiency and enable even better customer service.  

The planned global operating model would create organisation that focuses on sales & service, including both our own operations and dealers in planned five market areas: the Nordics, Europe, South America, North America and Asia, Australia and Africa.  

The operational model would be supported by global support functions with harmonised processes and policies. With this potential new operating model for the future, Ponsse wants to ensure an even better customer focus and a globally harmonised and efficient operations and creating sustainable organisation for the future. This potential planned change would apply across the Ponsse organisation. The current operating model does not support global ways of working and the cost structure of the current model is not sustainable.  

According to initial estimates, the planned measures could result in the reduction of approximately 120-140 jobs globally, additionally new roles could be generated. The planned measures could result in total annual savings of app. 10M€ from 2026 onwards. 

The new potential operating model is planned to be effective as of 1 June 2024, when the Ponsse Leadership team under the leadership of CEO Juho Nummela will formulate the following operations: ​ 

  • Sales & Service organisation, including market areas, led by Marko Mattila​ 
  • Technology & R&D, led by Juha Inberg​ 
  • ​Digital Services & IT, led by Miika Soininen 
  • Operations inc. Supply Chain, Procurement and Logistics, led by Tommi Väänänen 
  • Service Excellence, led by Tapio Mertanen 
  • Finance, by Petri Härkönen 
  • People Safety & Culture, led by Tiina Kautonen 
  • Responsibility & Environment, led by Katja Paananen. 

​The proposed global operating model and related changes referred here may be subject to local consultations in Ponsse countries and are not final until such processes are completed. 

Ponsse invites its Finland based personnel to change negotiations​ 

Due to the plans to renew the operating model and related changes, Ponsse is inviting its Finland based salaried and senior salaried personnel to change negotiations. The negotiations concern the planned operating model and adjustment measures due to the changes in operating environment. The estimated impact in Finland may concern a maximum reduction of 50-60 roles, with the potential creation of new roles, potential changes in the job terms & conditions and a maximum two-week lay-off for personnel affected by the change negations during 2024.  

Employees (under Teollisuusliitto collective agreement) in Ponsse Plc factory and service operations in Finland are outside the scope of these negotiations.  

Epec Oy as a whole company is excluded from this. ​
