Two new members of Skanska's Senior Executive Team 

Roman Wieczorek, today President of Skanska Poland, and Mats Williamson, today
President of Skanska UK, will become Executive Vice Presidents (EVP) and new
members of Skanska's Senior Executive Team (SET). Petter Eiken, EVP in Skanska,
member of SET and acting President of Skanska Norway, will permanently take on
the role as President of Skanska Norway. Thomas Alm, EVP and member of SET, will
assume the role as SVP for Risk Management in Skanska, a new position in the
company. 

“These changes are a natural step in preparing the Senior Executive Team to take
Skanska to the next level. The coming years face several important challenges,
including handling the tough market situation and continue developing Skanska's
strategy,” says Johan Karlström, President and CEO, Skanska AB.

Roman Wieczorek has been President of Skanska Poland since 2005. Before that he
was part of the local management team and played a vital role in the successful
turn-around of Skanska's Polish operations. 

Mats Williamson has experience of many different roles in Skanska. Before he
became President of Skanska UK in July 2008 he led Skanska Sweden for six years.
He also has great experience of large and complicated projects from his period
as President for the former business unit Skanska International Projects and
from his position as Project Director for the Öresund Bridge. 

“Mats and Roman both bring important new knowledge and experience to SET - from
our key markets in Sweden, Central and Eastern Europe and from the UK. They have
very good track records in Skanska and have shown excellent leadership,” says
Johan Karlström. 

In SET, Petter Eiken has been overseeing the Nordic construction units and he
has especially focused on strengthening the integration across the units and
exploring operational synergies, such as procurement on a Nordic level and the
new efficient residential platform Skanska Xchange. He joined SET from the
position as President of Skanska Norway, and he will now return to this position
which will enable him to get closer to the business activities. 

Thomas Alm has been in charge of Skanska Latin America within SET and he has
also been leading the crucial enhancement of Skanska's risk management
processes. Therefore he is well equipped to take on the new position as SVP of
Risk Management. 

“I'm pleased that the new organization is a good example of our ambition to
create different career paths in Skanska, where our people can move between line
and staff positions, projects and offices and also between management levels.
This allows for a good match between individual needs and wishes and company
priorities,” says Johan Karlström.

The above changes will be implemented from October 1, with exception of Roman
Wieczorek who will join SET from January 1, 2010.
