Cadeler strengthens Senior Management team with three key profiles

Cadeler A/S has added three key profiles to its Senior Management team to facilitate the growth of the company and prepare for busy times ahead.

Cadeler has strengthened its Senior Management team with three key profiles, growing from four to seven members. The reason for this strategic move is to expand the range of different competencies in the Senior Management team, while positioning the organisation for growth in the years to come.

The new members include Pernille Korsager who joined the company in May 2022 as the company’s General Counsel (GC); Carina Cappelen who joined as Chief People & Culture Officer (CPCO) this November; and Peter Kragh Jacobsen who was promoted to Chief Technical Officer (CTO) in July 2022.

Mikkel Gleerup, CEO of Cadeler comments: “Our ability to remain successful comes down to the skills and capacities of our people. Our new Senior Management members will add valuable knowledge and experience to the team, making sure we are well prepared as demand for our services continues to be strong.”
