General – appointment
K2 Management today announces that its Board of Directors has appointed Carsten Nielsen as its new CEO.
The renewables and maritime industry leader will join from Semco Maritime in November, bringing with him 20 years of experience in offshore wind development and experience across a range of project-based industries.
Across a career that spans more than 30 years, Nielsen has successfully occupied a number of senior leadership roles at some of Denmark’s best performing businesses. Most recently, he has been Senior Vice President of the Renewables division at Semco Maritime in Esbjerg.
Occupying the position for almost seven years, he has worked to deliver year-on-year growth for a division that he played a large part in transforming.
Prior to joining Semco Maritime, Nielsen held a senior position with Danish steel giant DS Group, together with a position as Managing Director for their maintenance company DS Semaco. He was also Sales and Project Director for Bladt Industries, a leading supplier in the offshore wind industry.
Nielsen will head up K2 Management’s team of specialists as the business continues to support its clients in their efforts to develop and operate renewable energy projects that achieve the best possible return on investment, across the entire value chain.
