Karin Lindqvist
HR Director | Strategic People & Culture Leader
Alvea Biologics AB
Dear Hiring Committee,
I am writing to express my interest in the HR Director position at Alvea Biologics AB. With extensive leadership in people operations and organizational development across regulated life sciences and enterprise sectors in Sweden, I welcome the opportunity to direct your workforce strategy as the company expands its manufacturing and clinical research operations.
At Vindura BioTech AB, I direct people operations and organizational development across Swedish and European operational sites comprising 650 employees. In this capacity, I lead collective bargaining negotiations and maintain ongoing liaison with union representatives under MBL and local collective agreements. To address retention challenges in critical technical disciplines, I instituted refreshed retention programs and structured career pathway frameworks, which reduced unwanted attrition across research and manufacturing units from 14% to 8.5%. Furthermore, I spearheaded the migration of our legacy systems to Workday HCM, establishing standardized compensation modeling and streamlined cross-border performance reviews.
Prior to my current position, as Head of People & Culture at Aros Logistics Solutions, I led a team of eight HR Business Partners supporting 900 operational and commercial employees across the Nordic region. During a period of structural evolution, I harmonized compensation and benefits structures following corporate acquisitions and established a regional leadership development academy, accelerating internal succession rates for managerial roles by 30%. This background in scaling organizational structures while adhering rigorously to Swedish labor law enables me to support Alvea Biologics AB in fostering a stable, high-trust workplace culture.
I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my background in strategic talent management, labor relations, and organizational design aligns with your leadership priorities. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Karin Lindqvist
