Thorkildsen will remain available to the Group and the new Norwegian management for some time going forward.

He has consolidated a number of businesses, contributed to winning a number of significant contracts, and was central to the acquisition of Embriq. In this way he has also contributed to the design of Rejlers’ digital strategy in areas such as construction, energy, telecommunication and transport,” remarks Peter Rejler, President and CEO of Rejlers AB. The Board of Directors and I am grateful for Morten’s contribution and wish him all the best in his future endeavours.”

It has been a great pleasure to work with so many competent employees, and I wish everyone good luck going into the future. After some three years in the role as CEO, I now feel that the time has come for new challenges where the focus will be on value creation and digitisation,” comments Morten Thorkildsen.
