When you walk through the doors of Elektromontage, you are welcomed by an atmosphere that is as personal as it is professional. For Kristin Elebring, the company’s HR Manager, it is precisely this family-oriented culture—combined with a global reach—that makes the workplace unique.
Working with HR in a manufacturing environment is not always straightforward. It often involves balancing hard products with people-focused values, but at Elektromontage, these two worlds are successfully brought together.
“We have a strong structure in place, while also making room for the softer aspects that can sometimes be challenging to prioritize in a production environment. One of our strengths is that we openly discuss communication, leadership and feedback in forums where everyone has the opportunity to participate.”
An open workplace with strong employee engagement
A recurring theme in Kristin’s description of the company is involvement. Because the organization is relatively small, communication between employees is close and direct. Short decision-making paths make it easier—and more enjoyable—to turn ideas into reality.
The company culture can be summarized in three words: engagement, agility and personality. The pace is often fast, but there is always room for meaningful personal interactions.
“What makes our employees enjoy working here is the variety in their work, the high level of involvement and the fact that we genuinely listen to them.”
From Söderköping to the global stage
There is another feeling that runs throughout Elektromontage—a sense of pride in what a local company in Östergötland can achieve on a global scale.
“What makes Elektromontage so special is that from our base in Söderköping, we deliver products to customers around the world, while also welcoming colleagues and representatives from many different parts of the world. Being part of delivering that, every day, is something we are very proud of.”
