“The role of project manager is not only essential – it’s fascinating!” Ansgar Johan Ladstein has held this position in the HV Power Systems department at Omexom Norway since 2021 and is clearly passionate about his day-to-day work. He manages projects that vary greatly in terms of both scale and content.

“A project manager is like the conductor of an orchestra…” and the VINCI Energies culture makes it possible to “Reconcile the operational, financial and contractual dimensions of a project while enjoying significant autonomy and broad responsibility.”

At the age of 33, this specialist in renewable energies and electrical engineering recently delivered a contract particularly close to his heart: the installation of 76 electric vehicle charging points and two substations in an Oslo bus depot.

He explains: “This was a collective project with five Omexom business units collaborating, but also with a twist, in that there was a strong emphasis on carbon neutrality, so all the equipment used was electrically powered.”

The idea of managing operations sustainably is key for Ansgar Johan Ladstein. This personal interest also prompted him recently to choose, from the many VINCI Energies training programmes available, a course on risk assessment with a focus on environmental risk.
