U.S. President of Freyr Battery Leaves in Latest Shakeup
The CEO told staff during an all-hands meeting Friday morning that Jeremy Bezdek had left the company
In a new shakeup, Jeremy Bezdek, president of Freyr Battery’s U.S. division, has left the company, according to a person familiar with the situation. The unexpected move comes two months after CEO Birger Steen left the next-generation battery maker 10 months after taking the job.
The move is surprising. Senior company executives did not disclose Bezdek’s exit during a call with Wall Street analysts Friday morning. But minutes later, CEO Tom Einar Jensen announced it to staff during an all-hands meeting, the person familiar with the situation said. Jensen also said he had promoted Michael Brose, executive vice president for operations, to chief operations officer.
