Biography

He was the chief financial officer in Oslo municipality in the late 1980s. He resigned in March 1990.[1] From 1996 to 1997 he was an acting chief executive at Ullevål Hospital.[2][3] He also chaired Aker Hospital from 1994 to August 2000.[4][5] In October 2000 he was named as chairman of Ullevål Hospital.[6]

He was also leased by Dagsavisen in 2001 to save the newspaper's economy.[7] He has performed the same task in several other newspaper such as Østlendingen, Hamar Arbeiderblad, Ringsaker Blad and Moss Dagblad, the book club De norske Bokklubbene,[8] the publishing houses Aschehoug and Universitetsforlaget.[9] He was hired by Bærum municipality in 2004 to help them cut up to 80 million off the health budget,[10] then in Drammen municipality in mid-2005 to clean up their care services.[11]

From 2005 to 2008 he chaired several health trusts in South and Eastern Norway; Rikshospitalet-Radiumhospitalet and Sørlandet Hospital. A dispute in 2008 on whether to construct a new patient hotel at Radiumhospitalet led to Pettersen's resignation.[12] Briefly in 2005 he was also a board member of Achima Helse, a company that leased workers to the same hospitals.[13]

From 2008 to 2009 he was instead brought in as acting director of the National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design.[14] From March 2009 to August 2010 he went on to serve as acting director of Stavanger University Hospital.[15] He returned to the administrative officer staff of Drammen municipality.[16] In late 2011 he was hired by the University of Oslo.[17]
