KATKO’s Finnish sales team is growing as Marko Kyllästinen joins the team as Sales Manager. In his new role, Marko will focus particularly on OEM customers, panel builders, and industrial customer segments.

In his previous role, Marko worked as an Account Manager with industrial customers, so sales and close customer collaboration are already very familiar to him. Altogether, he brings more than 15 years of sales experience, particularly in electrical and automation components as well as various project solutions.

Marko describes his approach to work as strongly customer-focused:

“I have always taken a strongly customer-focused approach, and this is reflected in how I interact with customers, build long-term relationships, and find the solutions that best meet their needs.”

According to Marko, his first weeks at KATKO have been off to a busy start. Alongside getting familiar with his new role and learning the systems, he has already had the opportunity to meet customers during Sonepar’s Industrial Tour.

Marko shares his first impressions:

“I’m really looking forward to what’s ahead and feeling very positive. There seems to be a very energetic community here, so it’s great to be joining the team.”

Marko reports to Simo Kettunen, Sales Director for Finland and the Baltics, who comments on the new addition to the team:

“It’s great to have Marko join our sales team, and his first few weeks have already shown that he fits in very well with our team! With Marko on board, we will have more resources to serve our customers even better and, most importantly, to be more visible and present in the field. Marko has already demonstrated a proactive approach and a clear enthusiasm for getting out there and meeting customers!”

A warm welcome to the KATKO team, Marko – it’s great to have you on board!
