Pac Basin's Rindbo to be new Norden ceo
Danish shipowner Norden is bringing in Pacific Basin coo, Jan Rindbo, as its new ceo mid-next year, taking over from interim ceo Klaus Nyborg former chief of Hong Kong shipowner.

Rindho, 40, is set to take up the ceo role from “early summer” 2015. He will take over from Nyborg who was appointed interim ceo in June this year after then chief Carsten Mortensen resigned from Norden to take up the ceo position at BW Group.

Together with the rest of the executive management,” Mogens Hugo chairman of Norden.
