Danish ferry and logistics operator DFDS has appointed Karen Dyrskjøt Boesen (above) as its new chief financial officer, replacing Karina Deacon, who resigned in November.
Ms Dyrskjøt Boesen will start her new role on 1 July.
“Karen Dyrskjøt Boesen brings a strong and versatile set of financial and business skills to our executive management. Her extensive experience from various energy companies will also greatly benefit and support our green transition,” said Claus Hemmingsen, DFDS chairman.
CEO Torben Carlsen said: “I am very pleased to welcome Karen to DFDS. Her mix of financial, business and leadership skills will be a great asset as we focus on fulfilling our strategic ambitions to unlock value and transition to be a green company.”

“I feel this is a very exciting time to join DFDS,” she said. “DFDS has embarked on the green transition and, coming from a renewable energy producer, this is a journey I’m very passionate about. I look forward to putting my insight and experience to work, while leading on fulfilling DFDS’ financial ambitions.”
