Telenor gjennomf rer endringer i konsernledelsen for styrke regionene i Norden og Asia, og oppretter i tillegg nye enheter innen infrastruktur og tilh rende tjenester.

Digitaliseringen forandrer livene til folk, og endringene som n gj res skal gi mer verdi til Telenors kunder og hjelpe dem m te b de nye utfordringer og muligheter. For f til dette og posisjonere Telenor for fremtidig vekst, gjennomf rer Telenor endringer i konsernledelsen og organiseringen av virksomheten.

- Vi styrker Telenor og sikrer at v re virksomheter har fokus og retning for vokse og gi kundene mer verdi. Vi forsterker samarbeidet og skaper synergier mellom v re fire nordiske selskap for raskere utvikle nye tjenester p en effektiv m te, mens Asia vil ha fokus p bygge skala i partnerskap med andre. Samtidig ker vi trykket p utvikle eksisterende og potensielt nye tjenester og innretter oss for styrke verdien av v r infrastruktur, sier Sigve Brekke, konsernsjef i Telenor.

Styrkede regioner og kt fokus p tjenesteutviklingI Norden samles alle de fire nordiske forretningsenhetene i Norge, Sverige, Danmark og Finland under en nyetablert stilling som Norden-sjef, ledet av Petter-B rre Furberg. Furberg vil representere alle de nordiske selskapene, inklusiv Telenor Norge, i Telenors konsernledelse. Den nye ledergruppen i Norden, hvor ogs lederne for de nordiske mobilselskapene inng r, skal sammen videreutvikle samarbeidet i regionen. Forhenv rende leder for Norden, Jukka Leinonen, gikk av med pensjon i juni.

Selskapets Asia-virksomhet utvikles i en mer selvstendig retning ledet av J rgen C. Arentz Rostrup. Telenor sitt regionskontor i Singapore styrkes for st tte fusjonsprosessene i Thailand og Malaysia, samt videreutvikle virksomhetene i Bangladesh og Pakistan.

- Jeg har stor tro p styrke regionene v re og gi dem mer selvstendighet. Den nye nordiske organisasjonen vil ta oss n rmere kundene og legge grunnlaget for synergier p tvers, og i Asia rigger vi oss for bygge skala i en stadig mer digitalisert region. Jeg er sv rt glad for at Petter-B rre og J rgen har sagt ja til lede de to regionene. Etter disse endringene har vi en styrket organisasjon som er klar for videreutvikle v re posisjoner og fortsette levere tjenester folk stoler p , sier Brekke.

Det etableres ogs to nye kommersielle enheter, Telenor Infrastruktur og Adjacent Business.

Den nye enheten, Adjacent Business, vil gi Telenor fokus og kraft til videreutvikle tilh rende tjenester innenfor eksisterende og potensielt nye selskaper, ogs til andre utenfor Telenor. Enheten vil bli ledet av Dan Ouchterlony, som har lang fartstid fra Schibsted, hvor han blant annet var en del av konsernledelsen og ledet divisjonen Financial Services and Venture. Ouchterlony tiltrer stillingen 19. september.

Telenor Infrastruktur skal samle og styrke verdien av Telenors infrastruktur i Norden. Jannicke Hilland, som har v rt konsernsjef i kraftselskapet Eviny siden 2015, tiltrer som leder for den nye enheten fra 1. oktober.

Ny sjef for Telenor NorgeStyret i Telenor Norge har utnevnt Birgitte Engebretsen som ny administrerende direkt r i Telenor Norge. Hun har over 20 rs erfaring fra IT- og telekombransjen og har siden 2020 v rt leder for Bedriftsdivisjonen i Telenor Norge. Hun tiltrer den nye stillingen 1. september 2022.

- Under Birgittes ledelse har Telenor Norge fornyet portef ljen v r i bedriftsmarkedet og videreutviklet v r forretningsmodell. Bare det siste ret har en rekke sikkerhet- og nettverksl sninger blitt lansert, som har forsterket Telenors posisjon. Birgitte er godt rustet til lede Telenor Norge gjennom den transformasjonen som n hele selskapet st r overfor, sier Petter-B rre Furberg.

- Jeg er takknemlig for tilliten jeg blir vist og ser frem til muligheten for lede et av Norges mest spennende selskaper. Sammen med utrolig kompetente kollegaer, skal vi bygge Telenor for fremtiden og fortsette skape mer verdi for kundene, sier Birgitte Engebretsen og legger til:

- Telenor st r midt oppi tidenes moderniseringsl p og vi har et stort vekstpotensial innen omr der som sikkerhet, 5G, IoT og fiber. Derfor vil vi fortsette skape verdi for kundene v re ved utvikle flere relevante sikkerhetstjenester for b de privat- og bedriftsmarkedet samtidig som vi posisjonerer oss for de neste utviklingsfasene innen 5G. Tr dl st bredb nd og private 5G-nett er bare starten, sier Engebretsen.
