Delivery Hero boss Niklas Östberg joins Zalando supervisory board
Online fashion retailer Zalando has confirmed the appointment of Delivery Hero CEO and Co-founder Niklas Östberg to its supervisory board.
This was proposed last month, and was given the green light during Zalando’s AGM this week, with Niklas Östberg officially announcing it on Twitter yesterday.
Östberg succeeds Jørgen Madsen Lindemann, who decided not to stand for re-election after serving as a member of the supervisory board since 2016.
Cristina Stenbeck, Chair of Zalando's supervisory board and nomination committee, said in April: “Niklas is an experienced CEO, leading a global platform business that operates in several overlapping markets with Zalando’s own geographic footprint.”
“Under his leadership, Delivery Hero has continued to deliver growth as well as continued value creation through smart capital allocation, compelling localisation and talent acquisition strategies.”
“We are confident that Niklas will bring beneficial insights and perspectives to the work of the supervisory board.”
