København Og Omegn

After the recent acquisition of Codan Forsikring, Alm. Brand Group is now the second largest insurance company in Denmark. I was offered the position as head of the consolidated department. My operational areas of responsibility remained the same (including the general accounting part) and in addition I contributed to the decisions regarding the future.
