Spotify Taps Saab Executive Christian Luiga as New Finance Chief

By Colin Kellaher

 

Spotify Technology has hired Christian Luiga as its next chief financial officer, poaching the executive from defense and security group Saab.

Spotify on Thursday said Luiga, who had been serving as chief financial officer and deputy chief executive of Saab since 2020, will join the music-streaming platform in the third quarter.

Spotify in December said its current finance chief, Paul Vogel, was leaving at the end of March. The company on Thursday said Ben Kung, vice president of financial planning and analysis, will serve as interim chief financial officer.

Saab earlier Thursday said it has initiated the recruitment process to find a successor to Luiga.
