“I would like to thank Øivind for his important contributions to the Norwegian infrastructure division. He leaves behind a well-functioning business with great potential and solid expertise. As Øivind now, on his own initiative, wishes to hand over the position, I’m pleased that he will continue to contribute with his expertise within Veidekke,” says CEO Jimmy Bengtsson.
Anders Haugen joined Veidekke in 2008. He holds a Master of Science degree from NTNU (the Norwegian University of Science and Technology) and an MBA from NHH (the Norwegian School of Economics). Haugen joins from the position as manager for Veidekke’s building operations in Oslo, a role he has held for over seven years. In 2024, he completed a General Management programme at Harvard Business School and has since been an active and important member of the team working on the new group strategy together with Veidekke’s corporate management and board of directors.
“I am pleased that Anders is taking over Veidekke Infrastructure Norway. His commercial focus and strategic thinking, combined with extensive experience from complex projects and high-level management, will be valuable for Veidekke’s further development,” says CEO Jimmy Bengtsson. The fact that Anders brings solid building expertise into our Infrastructure division adds further value – not least for our ability to share best practices across the Group.
Anders Haugen will spend the remainder of the year getting to know the Infrastructure operations and the people behind them.
