Det  bliver den 62-årige nordmand, Trond Westlie, der nu skal stå i spidsen for den finansielle genopretning af Ørsted efter et tab i fjor på 20 mia kr.

“Jeg glæder mig til at blive en del af en meget dygtig virksomhed med et vigtigt formål, og jeg ser frem til at arbejde sammen med teamet om at gennemføre den netop offentliggjorte plan og styrke Ørsteds økonomiske position yderligere,” siger Trond Westlie i en meddelelse fra selskabet.

Han droppede ellers ud af den aktive ledelseskarriere i 2019 til fordel for bestyrelsesposter og er i dag formanden for bestyrelsen i norske Arendals Fossekompani og medlem af bestyrelsen i Wilhelmsen Group.

Den nye driftsdirektør, Patrick Harnett er rekruteret internt fra en stilling som Head of European Execution Programmes.

De tiltræder begge den 1. april.
