What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead commercial growth where customer experience, operational discipline and data-driven decision-making can create scalable, predictable performance.

I lead commercial growth across finance, sports, manufacturing and media, combining P&L ownership with customer-driven execution.

At Factoringgruppen, I lead Sales, Customer Success and Marketing for a challenger financial company. I rebuilt a stable team, strengthened cross-functional delivery, and introduced KPI, pipeline and CRM routines in a regulated environment.

At Frölunda Hockey Club, I led B2B partnerships, sponsorship, business networks and ticket sales with full P&L responsibility. We delivered double-digit annual growth and record attendance while strengthening retention and commercial discipline.

Earlier, at Metro Media House and Metro International, I led commercial teams, global sales frameworks across 20 markets, CRM implementation, sales audits and data-driven transformation. My statistics and mathematics background helps me turn complexity into clear commercial priorities and reliable decisions.
