Job description

For 20 years, Safemind has helped ambitious companies find their leaders. From unknown start-ups to listed giants – we work with them all. Fast-moving, big-dreaming, and a little bit unpredictable (in the best way).

We’re looking for a Consultant to join our executive search team in Stockholm. You’ll work with some of Sweden’s most exciting growth companies — start-ups, scale-ups, listed players, and PE/VC-backed ventures.

• Meet and work with founders, CEOs, and decision-makers to define roles and opportunities
• Build long-term relationships with leaders and companies, whether we place someone today or in the future
