Challenging and innovating the recruitment industry
About Wes
Wes was founded in 2011 with the ambition to increase diversity in Swedish and international business. We go beyond the traditional networks and offer a modern, innovative, competence-based, and professional executive recruitment process that provides access to the entire talent pool. We recruit the best candidates for management, executive, and board level positions.
We are the given partner for companies that, just like us, value modern leadership and an inclusive corporate culture. Wes partners with clients from the business sector, public sector, and non-profit organizations. We also work across a range of different industries. Our customers are established large companies, entrepreneurial companies in the tech and growth arena, but also several investment and venture capital companies. In every process we have carried out, the goal has been the same — to find the right person for the job.
Since 2018, Wes has been part of Ogunsen AB, which is listed on First North Stockholm.
