About Me
Since July 2018 I live together with my wife Annalena and our daughter Amanda in Kullavik, Sweden after 6 years in Austria. Previous locations are Sandviken and Shanghai. Living and working in China was a very good experience for both Annalena and myself since we like Asia a lot, we also appreciated to give Amanda the opportunity to run in our backyard with fresh air and close to nature in Sandviken.
During my time with Sandvik, where I started to work after finishing my studies 2000, I have had the opportunity to work in various positions such as VP Finance, CFO, financial manager, project manager and business control. To work at different positions and parts of the Sandvik organization have given me a good understanding of the complexities within a multinational company and also experience in working and living in different countries.
In the future I am looking forward to contribute to improved operations as member of the management team. The most important ingredients in my work environment are dedicated and professional co-workers, enjoying to be part of a team, managers scoring high in the coaching area and international contacts since this usually helps me to see things from a different perspective and perform better.
