Deutsche Windtechnik has appointed Achim Berge Olsen (pictured) as chief executive officer of its offshore unit, expanding the management team to support future international growth.
The appointment took effect on 1 October 2025, with former CEO Jens Landwehr transitioning to a dual role as chief financial and chief technology officer.

He added that in his new role he will advance the company’s financial strategy and technical innovation to drive sustainable growth.
