Jesper Andersen

Curious about what’s next.
Grounded in what works today.

I lead AI and digital transformation, connecting business priorities with technology delivery and organisational change. I advise leadership teams on where AI belongs in their business, then take responsibility for delivering it, staying involved until the solution is part of everyday work. Twenty-five years from software developer to partner have taught me that the interesting question is never the technology. It is whether the business gets better.

What I bring

Business priorities.
Technology delivery. Change that sticks.

01

AI Strategy & Adoption

Decide where AI should start and what it should be allowed to do. I help leadership teams separate what a model can answer from what an agent can act on, pick one bounded process with a baseline, and agree who checks the results before anything goes live.

02

Transformation Delivery

Take a programme from decision to daily use. I have held delivery responsibility for international programmes across five countries and for AI solutions that now run in clients’ everyday operations, and I sit on the steering committees that keep them honest.

03

Enterprise Platforms & Data

Make the platforms you already pay for do more of the work. I started as a systems developer and still read architectures closely: Salesforce, Microsoft, integrations, data foundations and the local language models that keep sensitive data on your own servers.

Enterprise architecture, Salesforce & Agentforce, Data foundations, Integration, Cloud, private cloud & on-premises AI

04

AI Governance & Operating Model

Keep knowledge, control and accountability with an owner while the technology moves. I work through the five pillars of AI governance, data terms and regulation such as GDPR and the EU AI Act, so the rules are clear before the pilot, not after the incident.

05

Practice & Team Leadership

Build teams that deliver and keep growing. At PwC I combined three departments into one data practice with full P&L. I ran a B2B digital agency as CEO for six years, and today I lead OneNine Core, our Salesforce and enterprise delivery company.

Executive Workshops & Speaking

Give a leadership team a shared, practical picture of AI in one afternoon. My workshops across MedTech, retail, manufacturing and finance end with one real process redesigned and a next step someone owns. I also speak at events, most recently Salesforce’s Navigating the Agentic Era.

About Jesper

Who I am

Jesper Andersen with colleagues from OneNine at the office in Copenhagen

With part of the OneNine team in Copenhagen. Jesper is front left.

I help leadership teams turn AI from something they talk about into something their people use every day. Bring me in when the pilots look good but nothing changes, when nobody owns the decision, or when the business case has to survive a CFO.

I have spent most of my career between business and technology. I started as a systems developer at Danske Bank in 1998, moved through e-commerce and digital agencies, led global programmes at LBi, ran a B2B digital agency as CEO, and was Client Partner at Publicis Sapient on Pandora and Bang & Olufsen. At PwC Denmark I built a combined data practice and became Partner and AI Lead.

In September 2025 I founded OneNine with partners who wanted the same thing: an AI-adoption company that is curious about what is coming and pragmatic about what creates value today. A year later we are 19 people. I lead OneNine Core, our certified Salesforce partner, and work as a partner in OneNine Advisory.

Outside work I coach young talent in Falcon Basketball Klub on Frederiksberg and am part of the coaching staff around Denmark’s U18 women’s national team, where AI agents now sit next to the scouting notes. Talent development and transformation have more in common than you would think: both are about helping people meet bigger demands without losing themselves on the way.

Based in Copenhagen, working with leadership teams across the Nordics.

Career in a nutshell

From writing the code
to owning the outcome.

Twenty-five years between business and technology: developer, programme director, CEO, client partner and partner. Each step added responsibility for a bigger part of the result.

Full career on LinkedIn

From LinkedIn

What I believe.
In my own words, and a client’s.

Connect on LinkedIn

Not technology for the sake of technology. But that moment where you can see that something can genuinely make a company better. Make people better at their jobs. Create a better experience. Remove something stupid.

Jesper Andersen On what he has always loved about the work LinkedIn · September 2026

Jesper was a key contact from LBi on a large and complex e-commerce project. He was professional, focussed and over the course of the project was instrumental in keeping the project on track.

Jeremy Monfries Senior Product Designer Client · November 2011

The systems are still there in the background, but the work doesn’t have to start with me opening them and clicking around. I think that is a far more interesting conversation than whether AI can write a good email.

Jesper Andersen On headless Salesforce and AI agents LinkedIn · October 2026 · translated from Danish

It is fundamentally about doing things smarter and freeing up time to deliver better service than everyone else. Add curiosity and the newest technology, and you can end up with an AI system on your own hardware.

Jesper Andersen On the Boligexperten solution, as covered by Finans LinkedIn · October 2026 · translated from Danish

It doesn’t replace the hours of video review, the discussions in the staff, or the decisions made under pressure in a game. But it gives us an extra layer in the preparation.

Jesper Andersen On AI agents in the U18 national team’s coaching staff LinkedIn · August 2026 · translated from Danish

One year in. Still curious. Still grounded. And more convinced than ever that trust beats hype.

Ways to work together

The right support for the work ahead.

I work with leadership teams that want AI to change how the business runs, not just how it presents. I bring the strategic view and the delivery experience, and I stay until the work is in use.

  1. 01

    Pilots that look good, but nothing changes?

    Many AI pilots stop at the demo. I help choose one bounded process with a baseline, design the workflow, data access and controls before the prompt, and take it to production with someone accountable for the result.

  2. 02

    A leadership team without a shared view of AI?

    An afternoon workshop gives the team a common language: models and agents, cloud and on-premises, governance and regulation. We finish by redesigning one of your own processes and agreeing a 90-day path.

  3. 03

    A transformation that has lost its owner or its pace?

    I take delivery responsibility or join the steering committee to reset scope, governance and decisions, and to connect the business case with what is actually being built.

  4. 04

    Looking for a speaker who shows, not tells?

    From Salesforce’s Navigating the Agentic Era to small breakfast sessions on AI in finance, I bring live demos, real cases and an honest view of what it takes to get started.

  5. 05

    Something else in mind?

    A partnership, an introduction or a problem you haven’t quite defined yet? Tell me what you’re thinking.
