According to Managing Director Tonny Johansen, the move will strengthen the firm’s ability to meet client demand in the years to come. “These guys all have an impressive track record in developing services and lead complex clients projects – often across borders. We are on a journey to become even better at delivering our services cross-nationally and combining our services with specific sector insight.” The three will work alongside Johansen and be responsible for the firm’s development and customer offering.
A summary of the career of the three new Executive Directors:
Henrik Rosenberg Seiding joined the firm in 2005. In 2007, he became Head of Department of the Competence Center and in 2008 Deputy Director. After a short break at Ramboll between 2010 and 2011, he was appointed as Senior Director. In addition to Executive Director, he also acts as the Group Director for Sustainable Society at the firm. Rosenberg Seiding holds a Master’s degree in Political Science and Government.
