Svitzer Australia CFO Karl Thorngren has taken the top finance job at sister company Maersk Supply Service.
He joins the OSV owner from 29 April.
“I look forward to joining a company which is engaged in diversifying its business and delivering solutions to the energy sector," he said.
Thorngren has previously been head of M&A and projects at AP Moller-Maersk, as well as a member of the Esvagt board.
“I am confident that we have found a strong match for Maersk Supply Service in Karl. He brings with him an impressive track record within global finance and the maritime industry and will be a great asset in strengthening the future of Maersk Supply Service,” said CEO Steen Karstensen.
Thorngren replaces CFO Michael Krabbe, who will move to a new role outside the company in January.
During the interim period, the role will be covered by Mads Winther, senior VP and head of strategy and M&A for Maersk's energy division.
