Gert Storkborg

Gert, som jeg har kendt i mange år, er en samvittighedsfuld ledertype, der kan indgå i enhver produktionsvirksomhed m.m. og have blik for såvel logistik, HR, effektivisering af arbejdsgange som omkostningsminimering m.m. Samtidig er han ikke bange for at gå nye veje, hvis omlægninger er nødvendige og har selv kreative evner til at se nye løsninger. Han er vellidt af kolleger og kendt for sin ordholdenhed. Jeg kan kun give ham min bedste anbefaling.

Sue Carlson Lim, SPHR

It is with pleasure that I heartily recommend Gert Jacobsen for key Operations Management positions. Gert has done an outstanding job of overseeing all aspects of Adept's facility closure in Denmark. From my seat as director of Adept's worldwide facilities and managing this key project from the U.S., I have worked closely with Gert for months. Gert's excellent experience coupled with his attention to detail, strong work ethic, excellent communication skills and managment style will ensure he is an asset to the next organization he joins, as he has been for us!
