New CEO in GulenSkyss

As of July 1, 2020, our owner Per Vold will step down as CEO. GulenSkyss AS.

Per has been the general manager for 49 years, ever since he started the business in 1971 as the founder of Per Vold reiarlag, later Gulen Skyssbåtservice AS. Here he worked both as general manager and skipper in an exciting and demanding transportation business. He drove both school and rural routes, and was a transport for doctors, priests, veterinarians, and others who needed maritime transport.

From 2014, the shipping company began operating both shuttle boats and ferries and therefore changed its name to GulenSkyss AS.
Per Vold will still be involved in the shipping company even though there will now be a new general manager.

He is a trained sea captain and was involved in running the family shipping company Sønstabø Shipping until it was sold in 2005. In the same year he started at Eide Marine Services, where he was captain of an AHTS and submersible heavy lift vessel, before going ashore and becoming an inspector, project manager and later general manager at Eide Marine Design. For the past 4 years he has worked as a consultant in his own business with a main focus on project development and services to the maritime and offshore industry.
