Wind Energy – Appointment
WIND Group announces the appointment of Renier van den Bichelaer as its new Chief Operating Officer (COO), effective 1 February 2025.
Renier will also join the WIND Group management board.
Last year, COO Robbert van Diepen expressed his intention to wind down his role. To ensure a smooth transition, he will gradually transfer his responsibilities to Renier. Robbert will remain with WIND as Director of Business Operations, overseeing Cable Recovery operations, SHEQ, contact for Cable Crew and internal projects.
Renier brings extensive leadership experience from Seaway7, Maersk, and Boskalis in the offshore energy and maritime sectors, with a strong background in project-based organisations. He will apply his sector expertise and people-oriented leadership to further optimise WIND’s operations, enhance safety and quality, and strengthen overall organisational performance.
