About Christian
Name:
Christian Abdulahad
Lives in:
Stockholm
Hobbies:
Most of my free time revolves around food and family—cooking, trying out new restaurants… Then I spend a lot of time working out too: Muay Thai, gym, and running.
Christian joined Hemfrid in the summer of 2023 as an Area Manager in Stockholm after studying service management, entrepreneurship, leadership, and economics. In his role, he quickly had the opportunity to lead several projects and take on responsibility.
“What initially attracted me was the chance to actually make an impact and grow,” Christian shares. Shortly after joining, he was selected for Hemfrid’s Young Professionals—an initiative aimed at identifying and developing future talents through mentorship, training, and networking.
After some time as an Area Manager, Christian expressed his desire to continue growing. He was then offered the opportunity to step into a team lead role in the sales department, where his expertise and drive to make a difference quickly showed results.
Everyday life in the sales department
Today, Christian leads Hemfrid’s sales department as Sales Lead, focusing on converting prospects into satisfied customers—essentially helping them take the step to become Hemfrid clients. In addition, he follows up on the department’s KPIs and ensures that the team meets its goals.
“Every day is about improving and streamlining the customer journey,” Christian explains. He drives several improvement projects, from developing new workflows to holding strategic meetings with developers. One initiative he has helped implement is Click & Go, a feature that simplifies the booking process, making it even easier for customers to get started with our services.
What makes Hemfrid unique
For Christian, who thrives in a fast-paced environment with development in sight, Hemfrid is the perfect workplace.
“The best part is that Hemfrid is undergoing a significant transformation. You don’t need to switch companies to find new challenges—you can grow and develop right here.”
Thanks to Hemfrid being part of the KEYTO Group, new doors have opened for professional development and career opportunities, which Christian describes as an exciting journey to be part of.
The ability to influence the company’s direction early in his career and work in an organization that values being at the forefront of skills and technology are other factors he highlights as especially important.
“I truly appreciate that Hemfrid invests in young talents through initiatives like Young Professionals and trainee programs. They take the development of their employees seriously.”
Christian recommends Hemfrid as an employer for those who enjoy change and want to work in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where the opportunity to make an impact is significant.
“For someone like me, who enjoys growth and tackling new challenges, Hemfrid is an excellent workplace,” he concludes.
