Hägg has chosen to pursue an opportunity outside of the group, according to a statement from the Stockholm-listed firm.

Before joining Scandi Standard last year, Lagerqvist worked for consumer goods firm Procter & Gamble, Italian food maker Barilla and SverigesEnergi. 

Meanwhile, Samuli Eskola will move from the position of country manager for Scandi Standard’s Finland-based operations to become a member of the group’s management team. A search for a replacement to fill the vacant role of country manager for Ireland is underway.

Vincent Carton, whose family owns a 9% stake in Scandi, is also set to leave. Carton is a non-executive director of group operations. He has agreed to stay on through 2019 to ensure a coordinated handover.
