CMO at Qred, shaping product roadmaps and pricing while growing revenue across seven European markets.

Sweden
Message

At Qred, I lead marketing and go-to-market across seven European markets, bringing brand, growth, product marketing, and corporate communications together in one commercially accountable team. I sit on the Executive team, report to the CEO, and partner on company strategy, market entry, and M&A evaluation.

At Qred, I share product roadmap and pricing ownership with Product and Engineering. I shaped the pricing and go-to-market for a new annuity/loan product, which delivered 2.8% top-line growth in its first quarter in Germany and Norway, and supported a Netherlands credit card launch that reached 2,000 customers in four months.

I also own a multi-million-euro marketing budget and lead a centralized team of 17. In Finland, the Netherlands, and Sweden, lead scoring and SLA handoff deliver 50% of Sales' converted credit card leads; I use MMM and geolocked incrementality testing to measure investment impact.

Before Qred, I worked at Zettle by PayPal across brand, upper-funnel, and programmatic marketing, including a global campaign called Selfmade. Earlier, I managed travel partner integrations at Skyscanner and regional ad operations at Kiosked, building experience across fintech, payments, travel, and adtech.
