Matthew T. Jacobsen serves as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of WillScot Holdings Corp Class A, a leading provider of innovative modular space and portable storage solutions. Appointed in April 2021, Jacobsen oversees the company's global financial strategy, including capital markets activities, treasury operations, investor relations, financial planning and analysis, tax, and accounting functions. His leadership has been instrumental in driving financial discipline, supporting strategic acquisitions, and enhancing shareholder value following the transformative merger of WillScot and Mobile Mini in 2020. Prior to WillScot, Jacobsen was Chief Financial Officer at Vroom, Inc., an innovative e-commerce automotive retailer, from 2018 to 2021, where he guided the company through rapid scaling, a successful IPO, and navigation of market challenges. Before Vroom, he spent over 12 years at Blackstone in the Private Equity Portfolio Operations group, rising to Managing Director. In that role, he led operational improvements and value creation across a diverse portfolio of companies, honing expertise in financial optimization, M&A integration, and performance enhancement. Jacobsen's distinguished career is complemented by his educational background, holding an MBA from Harvard Business School and a BA in Economics from the University of Utah. His achievements include spearheading debt refinancing initiatives at WillScot that strengthened the balance sheet and positioned the company for sustained growth in the $100 billion modular space industry. A proven financial leader, Jacobsen continues to play a pivotal role in WillScot's ambition to become the customer's first choice in flexible workspace solutions.
