Meet Jan B. Pedersen – he is part of the calculation team at Pro-Automatic

Jan B. Pedersen - one of Pro-Automatic's professional specialists - is someone our employees and customers turn to when seeking expertise, particularly in distribution panels. Jan has accumulated over 30 years of experience in the industry, working as a workshop manager, sales manager and, for the last 18 years, as a calculator, specializing in distribution panels. In early 2023, Jan joined Pro-Automatic as a calculator.

"Jan provides strong technical support to the sales team. He works daily at both Fleks Tavler in Vejle and Pro-Automatic in Holsted, connecting the two companies more closely and strengthening collaboration. He is diligent, meticulous, and provides excellent customer care. Therefore, he is a perfect match for Pro-Automatic's values, and customers also highly appreciate Jan's expertise," says Peder Pedersen, Sales Director at Pro-Automatic.

Strong professional network at Pro-Automatic

Jan is a humble person who prefers to highlight his colleagues rather than himself when we ask him. The easiest way to meet Jan is over the phone or in a Teams call, as he flexibly moves between his home office, the office in Vejle, or in Holsted, and thrives in this setup.

Throughout his extensive career, continuous education has been essential for Jan, and he has consistently supplemented his professional background as an electrician and electronics engineer. Hence, energy advisor, energy technologist, and leadership training are also listed on Jan's CV.

"I highly value the professional network at Pro. There are so many strong competencies among my colleagues, and specialists who have the exact knowledge one seeks, and I appreciate that. We have many employees with plenty of experience in electrical panels. However, I also find that the younger employees bring fresh competencies and new tools to Pro-Automatic," says Jan.

The green transition means busy times

Jan joined Pro in 2023 to support the company's growth and development. The green transition has brought busy times to the company, and to meet market demands, more calculators were needed to support the sales team. Jan covers a wide range and handles everything from "simple" calculations to the large and complex projects that are increasingly common at Pro-Automatic.

"It's exciting to contribute to the green transition. We calculate many quotes for electrical panels for solar cell installations and charging stations, delivering to both small and large players in the market. Our Service department also experiences high demand as many existing electrical panels need to be modified due to the green transition, so we have initiated several development initiatives to keep up," concludes Jan.
