Change in Leadership at Centric IT Solutions Lithuania

After nearly five years at the helm, the head of the IT services company Centric IT Solutions Lithuania is changing. Dainius Aksinavičius is being succeeded by Tadas Jarockas, who has until now served as the company’s Head of the IT Department.

Tadas Jarockas steps into the role with solid leadership experience in the technology sector. Over the past five years, he held the position of Head of the IT Department (CTO) at Centric IT Solutions Lithuania, and prior to that he led the IT infrastructure division of Sanitex across the Baltic states. Earlier in his career, he spent most of his time working in foreign-capital service centers, where he oversaw the development of IT infrastructure.

Dainius Aksinavičius, who has led the organization since March 2021, is stepping down from the CEO position by his own decision.

“Since 2018, Centric IT Solutions Lithuania in our country operated solely as a competence and innovation service center for the Dutch Centric group. From the end of 2024, we transformed from a service center working only for the parent company into a commercial organization and began providing IT services independently. I was the initiator of this transformation, and together with the professional team working here, we achieved a great deal. I believe the groundwork is only gaining momentum, especially with a leader like Tadas. As for myself, I feel that the time has come for change,” comments D. Aksinavičius.

The former CEO has not yet disclosed his future plans, but does not rule out the possibility of developing his own business while remaining in the fields of IT and leadership.

Geopolitical Security and Further Growth in Lithuania

Upon taking over leadership, T. Jarockas outlines clear strategic directions closely aligned with the shareholders’ investment strategy.

“We will focus on activities that enable the parent company to strengthen its position in the Dutch public sector by offering private cloud solutions as an alternative to American dominance in public cloud services. Another major focus is strengthening cybersecurity services by leveraging the competencies we have built here in Lithuania,” says the new CEO.

Despite close ties with the parent company, the firm will continue to operate actively in the local Lithuanian market. According to the CEO, businesses in Lithuania will be offered high value-added services: cybersecurity solutions, assessment and implementation of compliance with the Network and Information Systems Directive (NIS2), cloud services, as well as data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) tools.

New Investments

Looking to the near future, the new CEO has set an ambitious goal: to double revenues from IT service delivery in Lithuania, while maintaining the status of a competence center in cloud and cybersecurity.

One of the most important upcoming projects is the development of a Sovereign Cloud platform. “We will develop this platform in partnership with another Dutch company owned by our shareholders. It will allow us to host the solutions we create for public sector clients, addressing the growing need to ensure data security and availability without dependence on third parties or foreign states,” says T. Jarockas.

Additional investments are also planned for data storage, classification, and reporting solutions in clients’ private data centers, as well as AI-based data analytics.

Currently, the company works with more than 15 clients in Lithuania across the finance, manufacturing, transport, and logistics sectors, and also serves clients of the parent company. Among its largest clients are global brands such as Antea Group, Girteka, AS Watson, Coop, Spar, Vanderlande, Woodworking Industry Solutions, TPA, Letsinvest, Termolink, and others. The company employs 66 people at its office in Kaunas. In 2025, the company’s sales revenue exceeded EUR 5.2 million.

The Dutch Centric group has operations in eight European countries. Across its branches in Lithuania, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Norway, Sweden, Germany, and Romania, the group employs more than 4,000 people. The group’s total annual revenue amounts to approximately EUR 300 million.
