Personal skills:
We are looking for someone with an entrepreneurial spirit who is not afraid to enter into dialogue with potential acquisition candidates. As an employee at Lakers, you must enjoy working in a fast-paced environment and be able to juggle multiple tasks as once. You consider yourself a person who carries out what you have started, and you have a flair for business. You enjoy working in a team, but you are also independent and see yourself as someone who naturally initiates. It is important for you to deliver quality in your work, but you are also efficient and able to prioritize. The role will work closely with both local entrepreneurs and with our main owner, so it is important that you have good social skills and ability to navigate in different environments.
We offer:
We offer challenging and varied tasks in a large northern Group Company with a high activity level and a good work environment.

We offer competitive terms and offices in Nydalen, but are open to consider Stockholm or Berlin as location as well. As a member of the Management Team, the candidate will also be given the opportunity to take part in an attractive investment programme and therefore receive a potential upside through the value creation under Summa Equity’s ownership period.
