Kalle Hellgren
IT consultant with over 20 years experience as a consultant in the segment of small and medium enterprises. I have a consultative approach with a genuine interest in creating a cost-effective and efficient IT environment. Always with a personal commitment and driven to work proactively and to be flexible. Often work on multiple projects simultaneously and would rather see opportunities than problems. Have experience working both alone but has both experience and enjoy working in teams, often with a touch of humor.
Carrier goal
With the accumulated experience I have with my years as a consultant, I feel that I am ready to develop in a way that I have not been able to in my earlier positions. One way to proceed would be to work in a larger company with a leading position, eg Group Manager and thus develop my leadership skills and have the opportunity to work with new challenges and areas.
