Erik Halén joins the Knightec family, strengthening our Quality and Management offering

// news

At the beginning of January, Erik Halén joined Knightec as Regional Manager Quality & Management East, in Stockholm. Erik brings with him extensive experience from the consulting and service industry.

Most recently, he was at HiQ, where he held various roles in team and project sales, business development, and leadership.

– I’m like the breadth of Knightec’s offering,” says Erik. “The mash-up of software, hardware, design, UX, you name it, offers incredible opportunities to create innovative “digiphysical” experiences and services for customers. And then there’s the culture. There is a lot of talk nowadays about gender equality and sustainability, Knightec stands out above the rest when it comes to this. A great example is the national school collaborations program that the company has been driving for over a decade. It shows a genuine commitment to equality and sustainability, and I really appreciate that. They walk the talk.

In his role as Quality & Management Regional Manager, Erik will refine and develop Knightec’s market position, expanding the offering and growing the business. Special focus will be put on packaging deliverables for quality, project management, and business development. There is a significant need for functional safety, validation of software, and agile leadership at many companies as they transform towards digital products and servitization. With such great opportunities for continued growth, Knightec is aiming to double its current turnover within this field over the next few years in the Stockholm region.

– I’m really looking forward to being a part of Knightec and contributing to what is already an impressive company journey. With my background in the consulting and service industry and my experience from management and project sales, this is the ideal next step for both me and the company. It’s exciting times, continues Erik.

– I am proud to welcome Erik to Knightec, and the team. Erik’s background and profile fit well with our culture, particularly his experience in business development, sales, and leadership. Erik is an important addition and will be vital in helping us to achieve our goal of becoming the leading innovators in product development and digitization, concludes Mathias Båth, Quality & Management Business Unit Manager.
