Paul Chiasson, SVP Global Finance & Group Business Services at VELUX, recognised as one of Denmark’s Future Top Leaders
Børsen and Bain & Company have today announced the 25 strong profiles that leading headhunters believe have the potential to become the next generation of top executives in Denmark. Among them is Paul Chiasson, SVP Global Finance & Group Business Services at VELUX, who has been identified as one of the most likely candidates to join the executive leadership of some of the country’s largest companies within the next three to five years.
The list is the result of a thorough selection process in which the country’s most experienced headhunters have handpicked the profiles they believe are best positioned to shape the next generation of Danish business leadership.
We are very proud that Paul Chiasson has been named one of Denmark’s Future Top Leaders. I fully agree that Paul is a strong talent, and we have high expectations for him in VELUX. Paul excels at creating coherence between the financial results and the activity drivers in the business. He has strong business acumen, is highly analytical, and possesses deep strategic understanding. Paul has led the transformation we have carried out in Group Finance, where we have simplified our ways of working and modernised both our operating model and data foundation. This has made our finance organisation more agile, more value‑creating, and better equipped to support the business going forward.
Paul Chiasson joined VELUX as SVP for Global Finance in 2023 and has since expanded his responsibilities to include Group Business Service.
I am truly grateful for the recognition from Børsen, Bain & Company, and the leading headhunters. It is an exceptionally strong group of 25 profiles, and I am proud to be included. It is important for me to emphasise that the major accomplishments we have achieved in VELUX Finance and Group Business Service are the result of a strong, collective team effort. As a team, we work closely with the executive leadership to help strengthen our core business and ensure that our systems support the strategy. At the same time, we have built a more robust foundation for the colleagues in our markets who engage with customers and professional partners every day. This enables us to support their work in bringing daylight and fresh air to even more people.
