JUMBO Consulting Group has established a Norwegian subsidiary to be headed up by Norwegian national, Dan Thorkildsen.
In connection with the opening, Ulrik Bang-Olsen, CEO of JUMBO Consulting Group, said:
“Norway has been on our radar for a while. The renewable energy market is now picking up speed with a large number of players making a move from oil and gas and related industries into renewables and as such, we felt the timing could not be better in getting a local footprint in the market. In Dan, with his skill-set, network and commitment to be part of the green transition, we believe we have found the right person to support our Norwegian customers, in project developments in Norway and abroad, and look forward to making an impact in the market”.
Dan Thorkildsen has been in the world of major capital projects the last 13 years, including onshore construction, offshore topsides, subsea, and offshore wind projects, in Norway, Denmark, Singapore and USA. He holds a MSc in Industrial Economics (Contract Management) and a BSc in Civil Engineering (Structural Engineering) from the University of Stavanger:
“When JUMBO reached out to me it was like the pieces of a puzzle coming together. In addition to enjoying the thrill of complex project environments, I am passionate about the renewable energy transformation, sustainable project development and collaboration. I am very excited to join JUMBO and be given the opportunity to be part of the renewable energy transformation in Norway and supporting our existing and future partners embark on this journey. The renewable energy transformation can only be realized through strong international cooperation and partnerships”.
