New Grieg Shipbrokers boss Morten Muller is on the hunt for more hungry young brokers as he eyes growth in promising markets.

The 38-year-old broker was confirmed as the Norwegian shop's managing director earlier in July, after a period as interim chief following the departure of Finn Engelsen in January.

So what took the board so long to confirm him in the role?

"I'm very much involved in day-to-day operations and doing transactions," Muller told TradeWinds.
