Nokia Corp. said Thursday that Chief Legal Officer Nassib Abou-Khalil is stepping down from his position and leaving the company.

Mr. Abou-Khalil joined Nokia in 2014 and was appointed chief legal officer in 2019. A recruitment process will begin immediately for his successor, Nokia said.

"Alter eight years with the company, it's time for personal renewal and seeking new challenges externally," he said.

Esa Niinimaki, deputy chief legal officer, assumes the role of interim chief legal officer.
