JOB DESCRIPTION

Would you like to help build a growing executive search and specialist recruitment business in the Nordic defence and security sector?

You will work closely with both clients and candidates, building a strong understanding of their needs and the people who can help move their organisations forward.

Din Profil

PROFILE

You are curious about the defence and security sector and genuinely motivated to understand the industry, its organisations and the people who work in it. Previous experience from the defence industry is not essential. What matters is that you are keen to learn, read up on the sector and enjoy building relationships with people who work in complex and important fields.

You are confident in client-facing situations and able to earn trust in a demanding environment. You take responsibility, put the client first and understand the importance of careful, professional relationship management with both clients and candidates. You are comfortable working internationally and collaborating across cultures.

We believe you will bring:

- Experience in a commercial, consulting, recruitment or other client-facing role

- Strong relationship-building and communication skills

- A genuine interest in people and in developing a deep understanding of the industries you serve

- A proactive, accountable and curious approach to your work

- The ability to communicate fluently in Swedish and English

- A valid B-category driving licence

We value sound judgement, maturity and personal drive. Your ability to build confidence, follow through and represent the business with professionalism matters as much as your years of experience.
