About
I have over 25 years of experience in recruitment, both in Sweden and internationally. I’ve lived and worked abroad, including several years in the Netherlands, and later returned to Sweden to start my own business. This gives me a strong understanding of what it’s like to move between countries and set up operations in a new market.
I’m a good advisor for companies entering the Swedish market, especially those coming from abroad, as well as for Swedish companies looking to expand into the Netherlands. I can help with everything from hiring and team building to understanding cultural differences and how to work effectively across borders. I have a broad network and a deep understanding of how to build strong teams and navigate cultural differences. I’m fluent in Swedish, English, and Dutch, and I’m a strong communicator who enjoys helping companies grow across borders.
The companies that would benefit most from my experience are:
International businesses expanding into Sweden
Swedish companies planning to grow in the Netherlands
Any company working across countries that needs help with recruitment, culture, or communication
