New management for STRING in 2018

Sep 29, 2019 | Uncategorized

Managing director Jacob Vestergaard is leaving STRING by the end of May 2018. The process to find a new Managing Director has been started by STRING’s Steering Group.

2018 will be an exciting year for STRING in many ways. The year is off to a great start by expanding with new members in February and by summer a new management and additional positions will be in place to strengthen STRING’s further development. Jacob explains his decision to leave:

– STRING is undergoing an incredible development now with the expansion and the partnership today is stronger than ever both politically and financially. This seems to me to be the perfect time to leave. And as I turn 65 in March, I have been 40 years on the labour market of which 34 have been in leading positions, I will slow down now and retire from my position in STRING. I will work part time with limited assignments, Jacob Vestergaard explains.
