Arctic Shipping has recruited seasoned sale-and-purchase (S&P) broker Jan Egil Roald at the same time as co-owner Arctic Securities has hired veteran tanker analyst Ole-Rikard Hammer, both from Clarksons Platou.

Roald and Hammer clocked on at Arctic’s Haakon VIIs gate 5 head office in Oslo for the first time this week.

Roald becomes the first new recruit for Arctic Shipping, which was established last summer with a team of seven.
