Reconomy, the international circular economy specialist, has appointed Jesper Dalsgaard, as Chief Executive Officer of its Combineering brand. He will take up his new position on 1 August 2024 to lead the business through its next phase of growth.
Dalsgaard is an experienced strategic leader having held several executive and senior leadership roles in global management consulting, logistics and building materials firms. He has particular expertise in helping international businesses solve sustainability challenges and has a strong track record of leading and growing business divisions.
He was most recently at Ramboll, a global engineering and consultancy company delivering sustainable solutions to clients and partners, where he was Managing Director in its Environment & Health division. He oversaw the transformation of this division, turning it into Ramboll’s most profitable and largest segment.
Prior to this, Dalsgaardr held senior leadership positions at other multinational organisations, including VKR Holding, the parent company of VKR Group, and A.P. Moller Maersk. Jesper is a graduate of the Copenhagen Business School.
Combineering is a Denmark-based provider of large-scale, highly specialised and proprietary waste recycling solutions helping businesses maximise recycling rates, reduce waste and CO2 emissions. Combineering also offers logistics management, notification services and legal compliance solutions.
The brand was acquired by Reconomy in February 2023 to expand its circular capabilities in Europe and support international customers. Dalsgaard will work alongside the highly experienced leadership team in Reconomy’s Comply Loop to accelerate growth.
Guy Wakeley, Chief Executive Officer at Reconomy, said of the appointment: “We are delighted that Jesper will be leading Combineering at this exciting point in its journey following our acquisition of the brand last year. His strong track record of growing business divisions will prove invaluable as we look to accelerate our expansion in Europe and continue on our fast-growth trajectory.”
The appointment follows the hire of Henrik Mørch as Chief Operating Officer in March and comes amid continued strong trading and momentum across the wider Reconomy group.
