After serving in the Danish Navy during World War II, he returned to Petersen’s before joining FDB in 1949, where he designed affordable modern furniture such as folding chairs, sofa beds, and coffee tables.

In 1955, Jensen opened his own design studio and collaborated with companies such as Selig and Zoumboulakis. His Model 63 chair, created in 1963 for Selig, became an icon of modern Danish design. During the 1960s and 1970s, Jensen designed furniture for companies like Bernstorffsminde Møbelfabrik and Leolux. He passed away in 1982, leaving behind a significant legacy in Danish design.
