Ebusco has appointed Jan Piet Valk as interim Chief Financial Officer (CFO) following the announcement on 24 October regarding Jurjen Jongma’s decision to step down as the company’s CFO (he had been covering the position since September 2023).

Following the successful completion of the Rights Issue, Ebusco is now focused on further defining and executing its Turnaround Plan. The completion of the right issue follows the announcement, on 25th October, that Ebusco’s shareholders adopted all resolutions on the agenda of 24th October’s meeting in order to go ahead with the turnover plan, put its operations in order and avoid bankruptcy, that appeared quite close after the loss of a court case against Qbuzz on the 23rd October.

Jan Piet Valk becomes Ebusco CFO

Jan Piet Valk holds a Master’s Degree in Business Economics from the Vrije Universiteit of Amsterdam. His career has been shaped by diverse roles across the Royal Dutch Airforce, the Oil & Gas and Technology sectors, as well as the equipment rental industry. As a seasoned CFO and COO, he brings extensive expertise in building and managing global finance and operations functions, Ebusco states.

Christian Schreyer, CEO of Ebusco, comments: “First and foremost, I would like to express my gratitude to Jurjen for his invaluable contributions as CFO, especially in navigating the company through challenging times. His contribution to the successful completion of the Rights Issue has been crucial, allowing the company to move forward. We wish Jurjen all the best in his future endeavors. At the same time, I would like to welcome Jan Piet. His level of experience is what this company needs in this phase, and that is why I am pleased to see him joining our team.”
