Fujitsu's Nordic chief CEO Bengt Engström, who will closely manage the Denmark and Finland operations, said Lind's COO role was being introduced in order to better "coordinate" the Nordic businesses and their delivery centres. He expected "improvements both externally and internally" as a result of the change.

Meanwhile, CSC's Nordic operations are now to being led by John Walsh (left) based in Denmark where the company employs over 2,000 staff.

Walsh, a president at CSC, was drafted in to the region in December, as news spread of the serious challenges it faced.
