After more than a decade of committed service, Geir Sekkesaeter has announced his departure from OSM Thome, effective April 1st, to fully dedicate his time to his role with Ray Shipping Group.
Reflecting on his journey, Geir shared:
“Twelve years ago, I joined OSM as CEO, following in the footsteps of the founder, Bjørn Tore Larsen. It has been a truly rewarding chapter — one filled with meaningful relationships, bold decisions, and collective accomplishments. I leave OSM Thome with a full heart, proud of what we achieved together and deeply appreciative of the many colleagues and partners who made this journey so special.”
During his tenure, Geir played a key role in shaping OSM’s strategic direction and strengthening its global standing in ship management. Serving as CEO from 2013 to 2019 and Managing Director thereafter, he has been an instrumental part of the company’s growth. Geir will also continue to contribute as an advisor to the OSM Thome board.
Bjørn Tore Larsen, Chairman of OSM Thome, added: “Geir’s leadership has left a lasting mark. On behalf of the entire OSM Thome family, we thank him for his vision, his integrity, and his commitment — and we wish him nothing but the very best for the future.”
