One thing I always have on my desk: A Nocco. Preferably with a matching straw. And water, nasal spray and hand lotion.
Fun Fact: I really appreciate baking cakes. My biggest achievement was when I made two 3-tier cakes for my best friends' wedding, serving more than 100 wedding guests. It took me two months to make them.

I'm a Legal Counsel at MilDef. My workdays vary a lot! In short, together with my legal eagles, I serve the entire group by providing specialist legal support in a wide range of core business matters such as commercial contracts, M&A, investments, intellectual property and corporate governance. My work also includes representing the group in negotiations and dispute resolution, leading the development and implementation of company-wide legal strategies, giving advice in legal matters related to the stock exchange and MilDef's status as a listed company as well as in ethical, sustainability and regulatory matters related to being in the defense sector.

I feel the proudest when, together with my colleagues, we successfully complete a long-term project together.

It would be a day spent at the summer house on Öland, filled with exercise together with my husband, time at the beach, reading books in the hammock for my children, and a delicious dinner with my family, accompanied by the songs of swallows and the chirping of crickets.
Henrik Lindberg
Role: Technical Project Manager
Time at MilDef: Since September 2024, initially as a technician.
My colleagues would describe me as: I asked my former manager, who gave a combined summary: “Pragmatic is the word I think sums you up well,” adding cheerful, easygoing, and a team player. Also with a “poorly hidden ironic side.”
Fun Fact: I’m trained as an electrician, but I studied political science and economics at university. One unusual outcome of that mix - and probably what people react to most, is that I completed military service in two countries.

I work as a Technical Project Manager at MilDef since September 2024, where I initially started as a technician. The role is highly varied and largely hands-on. I support different projects by creating structure, systematizing ways of working, and driving collaboration, often cross-functionally between different professional groups and stakeholders. It involves developing solutions, roadmaps, and methodologies, while continuously keeping focus on the bigger picture, to ultimately tie everything together and deliver.
-
What makes MilDef unique is that it is a relatively young company operating in a rapidly changing world. The focus here is clearly on how to best solve the task at hand, rather than holding on to legacy ways of working. The culture is characterized by openness, curiosity, and a strong ambition to continuously improve.

I appreciate the teamwork, the inclusive culture, and the opportunity to take on new challenges. I am proud to be a part of MilDef. It's also important to me that we promote health and movement, as I am a very active person who likes to exercise and stay active. I am also happy that we actively participate in charity projects to make a positive difference in the community.
-
For me, it is important to have fun at work. We spend a large part of our time here, and working with a smile makes everything so much better. In my private life, I get a lot of energy from running, it is my time to clear my mind and recharge. But of course, it is also my family and my children who give me the greatest joy and energy in everyday life.

At work, I get energized by stepping into new, unexplored areas where I can use my experience to provide a clear and inspiring vision for the way forward. In my free time, hunting with my dog is something I try to dedicate a lot of my time to. It is a great way to recharge, reflect, and also a rewarding experience when my dog gets to do what he loves the most.
