Pernilla Sundén, HR Manager at Holtab, was named Employer Branding Person of the Year at the Stora Karriärdagen 2024 event in Stockholm on Wednesday evening.

Up to two hundred items a day. That’s how much Marlene Bengtsson has to handle in Holtab's goods reception.

“Holtab is a personal place, but nonetheless a well-oiled machine,” she says.

Yaiza Härdelin is studying “Optimisation of sustainable energy systems” at the Yrkeshögskolan (YH). A 12-week internship at Holtab is part of her education. Here she has focused on how to optimise Holtab’s electrical system.

Holtab is one of the 100 companies in Sweden considered to be the most attractive for students and professionals to build their careers, according to Karriärföretagen.

Ida Hedström has long worked in industrial settings. As a coordinator at Holtab’s factory in Olofström, she gets a different feeling, a positive one.

Julia Bång never thought she could work with electricity and technology. But when a friend told her about Holtab's and Montico’s open house and informational meeting about an electrical training course for women, she was curious.

Being the hub for when customers need installations and service – that's Carl Ragnarsson’s role as a Holtab service manager. 

To become an electrician, Jalil Faqiri studied at Montico Adult Education in Växjö, for a year and a half. He then started looking for an internship, found Holtab, and stayed. On 12 January 2021, he was given a permanent position as a electrical fitter. Congratulations!

#WorkingAtHoltab: Michael Fohlin enjoys being a manager. It allows him to support and engage his employees - the essence of the Holtab spirit.

At Holtab, there is a spirit of being open to trying new ways of doing things. This raised HR Manager Pernilla Sundén’s eyebrows. “It’s unique,” she says.

Felix Gunnarsson and Karl Jansson went straight from upper secondary school to working as electricians at Holtab. During their time at the company, they have learned more and more with the help of experienced colleagues.

#WorkingAtHoltab: Carl-Fredrik Gyllenhammar wanted to work more with the products. In his opinion, the combination of sales, technology and finance is the best thing about being a sales engineer at Holtab.

#WorkingAtHoltab. Linus Olofsson manages the growing Business Support department at Holtab. The department’s role is to receive potential jobs from the sales team, and convert them into feasible tenders. This all has to be presented in a way that the customer can understand and base a decision on.


Hale Ståhl started as a theatre nurse, but switched to the electricity industry. She has no regrets. On the contrary. She has good working hours, learns something new every day, and laughs a lot with her colleagues at Holtab – who are almost all men.
