HiQ strengthens its Atlassian offering in Sweden with two new hires
HiQ is strengthening its Atlassian offering with the recruitment of Magnus Sundset and Armin Kardar. Both bring extensive experience from the Atlassian ecosystem, which includes products such as Jira, Confluence, Jira Service Management and Trello. With this investment, HiQ is strengthening its ability to help customers generate greater business value from the Atlassian platform and improve the efficiency of their ways of working.
The investment combines HiQ’s specialist expertise in Atlassian products with experience in AI, cybersecurity, integration and complex software development. This gives customers better opportunities to develop their ways of working, strengthen their delivery capabilities and create long-term growth.
– This is a strategic investment where we are building on a strong foundation and adding further specialist expertise in Sweden. This enables us to support customers all the way from identifying their needs to implementing solutions that work and create real value, says Peter Arrhenius, CEO of HiQ.
HiQ is already a Platinum Atlassian Solution Partner in Germany and Finland and has recently achieved the same partner status in Sweden. Platinum is Atlassian’s highest partner level and reflects HiQ’s experience and specialist expertise in the field. The new status strengthens HiQ’s position in the Swedish market and creates further opportunities to continue expanding its Atlassian offering.
Magnus Sundset to lead the initiative
Magnus Sundset will take a leading role in developing HiQ’s Atlassian offering in Sweden. He joins HiQ from Eficode, where he was responsible for a specialist area within Atlassian, focusing on IT Service Management.
– Atlassian creates the greatest value when the platform is connected to the customer’s business, ways of working and business goals. HiQ has a strong foundation with its technical expertise, experienced consultants and broad customer base. This puts us in a strong position to help customers get more value from their investments and strengthen their business, says Magnus Sundset, newly appointed Head of Atlassian Practice Sweden.
Armin Kardar to lead the commercial efforts
Armin Kardar will be commercially responsible for HiQ’s Atlassian initiative in Sweden. He has more than ten years of experience in software sales and several years of experience within the Atlassian ecosystem.
– Many organisations already use Atlassian products, but there is often significantly more value to unlock. With HiQ’s broad technical expertise and understanding of our customers’ businesses, we can help them get more from their investments and use the platform to develop both their ways of working and their business, says Armin Kardar, Commercial Lead for Atlassian.
