CFO Barbara Plucnar Jensen to leave Tryg A/S. Allan Kragh Thaysen
has been appointed CFO and member of the Executive Board
Barbara Plucnar Jensen, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and member
of the Executive Board, will leave Tryg A/S by mutual agreement.
Effective November 2, 2023, Allan Kragh Thaysen (46), Tryg’s SVP of
Group Finance for the past five years, has been appointed as the
new CFO and as a member of Tryg’s Executive
Board.
Barbara Plucnar Jensen has been part of Tryg’s executive
management since 2019. Her unique skills within corporate finance
have been instrumental during the acquisition and financing of
RSA’s Scandinavian activities and the share issue that
followed.
Group CEO Johan Kirstein Brammer expressed his appreciation of
Barbara’s contributions during a decisive time in the history of
the Tryg Group.
”Barbara has made a significant impact on the Group that we have
become. She has advanced our compliance and governance practices,
driven the anchoring of ESG across the business, and not least
played an essential role in transforming the Group into
Scandinavia’s largest non-life insurance company. Her experience
within corporate finance and M&A has been a valuable asset
throughout this process. As the integration of the recently
acquired businesses draws to an end, the enlarged Group is now
entering a new phase with a renewed focus on optimizing our
insurance operations. This calls for a different CFO profile.”
Barbara Plucnar Jensen says:
”I am proud to have contributed to the transformation that Tryg
has undergone in the past 4 years – becoming Scandinavia’s largest
non-life insurer. The assignment I was hired for has been
successfully completed, and the time has come for Tryg to start a
new chapter with a new CFO. The timing is right and I will now take
the opportunity to start planning the next steps in my career.”
An internal successor, Allan Kragh Thaysen, has been chosen to
assume the position as Group CFO. Allan brings with him 18 years of
experience in the insurance industry and has reported to Barbara
Plucnar Jensen for the past five years as SVP of Group Finance. He
has worked closely with the Executive Board and played an integral
part in the acquisition of RSA’s Scandinavian businesses.
Group CEO Johan Kirstein Brammer elaborates:
”I am proud to see that, once again, we can benefit from a
strong focus on succession planning. Allan’s talent and potential
has been widely recognized in the organization for a long time. We
are pleased that we have been able to appoint yet another internal
candidate for a position of this importance. Allan is a skilled
leader and a leading light in his field of expertise. The
combination of Allan’s professional skills and solid experience
within insurance – both inside and outside of Tryg Group – makes
him the most suitable candidate for the job in both short and long
term.”
The Executive Board of Tryg A/S now consists of Chief Executive
Officer Johan Kirstein Brammer, Chief Financial Officer Allan Kragh
Thaysen, Chief Operational Officer Lars Bonde, Chief Commercial
Officer Alexandra Bastkær Winther, and Chief Technical Officer
Mikael Kärrsten.
