FOJAB grows in Stockholm - new strategic position created

FOJAB is gaining ground in the Stockholm market. In order to better meet the demand and grow further, a new strategic position is created in the office management. Jens Larsson leaves the position of office manager to become market area manager. At the same time, the recruitment of a new office manager begins.

With more than 100 employees in Malmö and almost 20 in Helsingborg, FOJAB is one of Skåne's largest architectural offices. Since the Stockholm office was established in 2013, it has grown steadily.

FOJAB in Stockholm currently employs about 25 people, and its broad expertise allows for assignments on all scales, from urban development to interior design, from early stages to construction documents. FOJAB is currently involved in several of the capital region's major development projects, such as Årstafältet, Barkarbystaden and Norra Djurgårdsstaden.

In order to meet the increased demand, several new architects will be hired during the fall and the office management will be expanded in order to further develop the office. Jens Larsson, the current office manager, has been given a new assignment as market area manager in Stockholm. His task will be to lead and develop the marketing work at the Stockholm office, develop new business opportunities and work long-term to identify new projects and customers.

- Jens knows the Stockholm market well and has an extraordinary ability to see opportunities and find areas of development. With the new management structure, we can gather strength both internally and externally to raise the bar further and become even more visible in an extremely interesting market," says Daniel Nord, CEO of FOJAB.

- "It has been an exciting journey to have the opportunity, during six years as office manager, to drive the development of the Stockholm office to where we are today," says Jens Larsson. "Now it's time to gear up and take the office to the next level. An expansion of the office management can provide exactly the momentum we need to take the next step. In my new role, I look forward to being able to focus even more on growth and project creation and to develop fantastic architecture together with our clients.

The recruitment of a new office manager has begun. The process is led by FOJAB's Chief Operating Officer Karin Fagerberg, who will also act as acting office manager in Stockholm until the new office manager is in place.
