FutureOn has appointed Herman Sannerholt as Chief Finance Officer (CFO). Bolstering the company’s leadership team, this senior position is critical to the ongoing success and strategic growth of the global energy software company.

Herman joins FutureOn from consultancy BDO Business Services – a leading provider of accounting, advisory and compliance services – where he held the role of Senior Associate. Prior to this, he spent four years as CFO at Defigo, a Norwegian property tech company.

Bringing experience and a depth of knowledge from working across various business functions and sizes, including customer success, accountancy and marketing, Mr Sannerholt has an extensive and diverse skillset. Leading a key function for FutureOn, Mr Sannerholt will be responsible for supporting FutureOn globally and contributing to its growth strategy.

He said:

"I have a passion for developing and implementing sound and strategic financial strategies within scale up companies, and I am well versed in ensuring compliance with often complex regulatory requirements. As an ambitious and fast-growing company, FutureOn is the perfect environment for me to make a real impact.

"The supportive and collaborative culture at FutureOn is fantastic and I look forward to supporting the team as we continue to deliver at the highest standard for our extensive client base.

"The energy industry is fast-evolving and requires the best technology and services from across the supply chain to contribute to a secure and sustainable market. I am proud to be part of FutureOn's groundbreaking FieldTwin platform, which is making a real difference for energy operators and companies across the world."

FieldTwin, FutureOn’s powerful, easy-to-use design and visualization platform that brings subsea developments to life, helps energy companies make smarter and faster decisions throughout the lifecycle of a project. The data-led decision making and cloud-based collaboration within FieldTwin is used across the energy sector, with an impressive track record within oil and gas and, increasingly, across the offshore wind and renewables space.

Stig Wølseth-Knudsen, CEO at FutureOn, said:

"Herman joins us at the perfect time for us as a growth company in this critical time for the energy industry. From operators to the supply chain, key players are considering and actioning what the next technologies, developments and strategies towards achieving a net zero future are.

Herman's experience and drive will help enhance our business offering and ensure we continue to thrive as a partner for operators and engineering companies across the world, and develop in both our frontier markets Asia Pacific and Middle East, and in our growth markets in Europe and America's."
