Chr. Hansen CEO announces reorganisation

CHR. Hansen has made changes to the regional structure of its commercial organisation, aligning it to geographies to provide a stronger strategic focus.

“Our present four regions will merge into three new and at the same time take seat in the Corporate Leadership Team. Each region will be headed up by a Group Vice President and they will report directly to me,” said CEO Cees de Jong (in photo).

Under the new setup, EMEA will be headed by Jacob Vishof Paulsen as Group Vice President EMEA; The Americas will be under David Carpenter as Group Vice President Americas; and APAC will be under Sten Estrup, Group Vice President APAC.

These changes also affect the management structure, which now includes a Corporate Leadership Team consisting of Winnie Büegel, Compliance, Christian Barker, Strategic Development (both members today) and the new Group Vice Presidents Jacob Vishof Paulsen, EMEA, David Carpenter, Americas and Sten Estrup, APAC.
