In January 2025, GRK announced a planned change of CEO and indicated that the change would take place by 30 September 2025 at the latest.
As GRK's current CEO, Juha Toimela, will reach the retirement age specified in his contract in 2025.

Mäenpää will also serve as CEO of GRK's country company in Finland, GRK Suomi Oy, effective from 1 October 2025.
Mäenpää has been in charge of GRK's country company in Sweden since 2020. Prior to that, he was employed as Chief Business Officer at Mäenpää Rakennus Oy, as the CEO of Sundström Ab Oy and as the Business Manager for Asia and Europe at Rolls-Royce Marine Oy.

This success is above all thanks to our dedicated personnel and our customers," says ays Chairman of the Board Kari Kauniskangas.
"During this year, I have had the opportunity to familiarise myself with the new role. While I have become familiar with the company's operations and personnel during the years I have worked at GRK, the transition period has provided the opportunity to learn more about the new role and participate in the IPO process, for example. GRK is in good shape and we are making progress towards our strategic goals. I want to continue this good work and maintain GRK's entrepreneurial and strong organisational culture," Mika Mäenpää says.
