Jakarta. Gojek Tokopedia (GoTo) is entering a pivotal transition as it prepares a new leadership lineup ahead of 2026. The tech giant has nominated Hans Patuwo as its next Chief Executive Officer, replacing Patrick Walujo, who is stepping down after helming the company since June 2023.

The proposal will be tabled at an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGMS) on Dec. 17, underscoring GoTo’s push to anchor its next phase of disciplined, profit-oriented growth.

GoTo President Commissioner Agus Martowardojo said the transition is part of a well-planned succession process, noting Patrick’s role in steering the company through its most transformative years post-merger.

“Patrick strengthened our financial fundamentals, sharpened operational focus, and restored long-term clarity. His contributions form the foundation for GoTo’s next chapter,” Agus said in a written statement.

Patrick, in his remarks, voiced support for Hans’s nomination. “Hans understands the GOTO ecosystem end-to-end. His integrity and leadership track record make him the right person to guide the company into its next growth phase,” he said.

Hans brings nearly eight years of experience across Gojek, Gopay, and GoTo. Known as a data-driven operator, he has been central in boosting efficiency across the ecosystem. Since joining Gojek in 2018 as COO, he led driver operations, strengthened transport services, and later headed GoTo Financial, now one of Indonesia’s largest fintech platforms. Currently serving as COO and President of On-Demand Services, he is seen as the candidate most familiar with the group’s operational challenges and growth opportunities.

The reshuffle goes beyond the CEO seat. GOTO also announced a broader board restructuring for 2026.

Public Affairs & Communications Director Ade Mulyana has resigned, along with commissioners Pablo Malay and Winato Kartono. To fill the vacant posts, the company has proposed Andre Soelistyo and Santoso Kartono, both recognized for their strong backgrounds in technology and investment.

GoTo expects the refreshed leadership to strengthen governance and oversight as the company navigates intensifying competition in the digital economy.
