In the Norwegian market, Bjarne has had several different roles with well-known customers such as SAS, ISS, NorgesGruppen, Odfjell, DFØ, Statkraft.
Bjarne is a very cheerful and sociable guy who likes to have a chat. Here you get the pleasure of getting to know him better through our little interview about skills, hobbies and the new everyday life in Sariba.
Who are you?
I am a positive and harmonious man of 55 years with adult children. Has also managed to become a grandfather! I grew up in Bærum where I still live. Spends a lot of my free time with friends and family, and loves to retreat to the cabin on the mountain. Although I am no longer so fond of exercising, I have a great interest in hunting.
What is the best thing about the job in Sariba?
For the past 11 years, my working day has been characterized by the fact that I have worked a lot alone. Now I am really looking forward to being allowed to work more in teams, and have the opportunity to learn new things from my colleagues, while I can contribute to the competence of others.
What motivates you?
I am a harmonious person who works for things to work. If something does not work, everyday life becomes unbalanced, and I want to work hard to create balance again. I am also very motivated by other colleagues, that everyone is different and can contribute in different areas.
What can you contribute to a project?
Personally, I believe that I can contribute as I am seeking harmony and will always make things work. Professionally, I have long and broad experience in various areas, customers and projects that I can take with me into my new role.
