Stockholm, Stockholm County, Sweden
I’m a transformation CEO with 20+ years scaling industrial, manufacturing, and sustainability-driven technology businesses. I rebuild operating models, strengthen commercial performance, reduce cost structures, and reposition companies for long-term value. My leadership philosophy is rooted in a B2H mindset — aligning people, culture, and strategy to accelerate execution and create measurable impact. I’ve led transformations at Yara, TOMRA, Stora Enso, and most recently X Shore. My work includes industrializing the world’s first blueprint boat assembly line, cutting 80% of BOM cost, reaching price parity with combustion boats, developing the first 800V marine drivetrain for mass production, and securing the largest electric boat order in the sector. I’ve delivered P&L improvements, launched new digital businesses, integrated global teams, and built partnerships with Porsche, Bosch, UBS, and the European Investment Bank. I focus on roles where clarity, speed, and cross-functional leadership are needed to unlock scale and deliver results.
