Project Manager, PMP | Driving clarity, momentum & impact

Stockholm, Stockholm County, Sweden

About

I’m a PMP-certified project manager with a decade of experience leading complex technical projects across automotive, marine, life science, and now dairy-farm technology at DeLaval. Working in these different industries has given me a broad technical foundation and a deep appreciation for how great products come to life. I love the hands-on craft of project management, bringing people together, creating structure out of complexity, and keeping momentum even when pressure rises. I’m proactive, solution-driven, and believe that clear communication and genuine collaboration are the real keys to delivering results. In my current role, I lead urgent product change and field quality initiatives. I work closely with engineering, quality, supply chain, and product teams to understand issues, define solid solutions, and make sure we execute quickly and reliably. I enjoy working with technology, I care about people, and I’m motivated by making products - and teams - better. Curious to connect? Feel free to reach out.
