Cermaq’s chief financial officer, Thomas Palm, is leaving after nearly ten years at the company.
During his times in Cermaq, Thomas has had many roles in the financial field. He joined the Cermaq Group as senior analyst business development in 2010, moving on to Cermaq Norway as a business developer in 2013. He was then finance director in Chile for a six-month period. In 2014, Thomas returned to Norway and becoming chief financial officer of Cermaq Norway. In 2016, he became chief financial officer of the Cermaq Group at just 33 years old.
“Thomas has contributed a lot to the Cermaq we are today,” said Cermaq Group’s chief executive, Geir Molvik. “Although I would prefer to see him continue here, I understand that he wants to extend his experience to other sectors, and I wish him good luck in the future,” he added.
“It has definitely not been an easy choice, but after many, very exciting years in Cermaq, I want to try myself in a new industry and a new company,” said Thomas. “It has been very motivating to work with so many competent and nice people in Cermaq and I will miss all my good colleagues in all parts of Cermaq and Mitsubishi,” he added.
Cermaq is one of the world's leading companies in farming of salmon and trout, with operations in Norway, Chile and Canada. Cermaq is a fully owned subsidiary of Mitsubishi Corporation headquartered in Oslo, Norway.
