JobAgent, HRtech startup, brings on Björn Elowson as its new CEO

JobAgent has added yet another fresh hire to its belt: Björn Elowson, seasoned and earnest thought leader across Europe and China. 

Elowson started as CEO on August 1st; prior to his appointment, he worked at the consultant and assessment companies cut-e (an Aon company) and Assessio. During the last 7 years he has a track-record of automated career development in London, assessment centers in China, selection of CEOs in the Nordics and has been invited to lectures as thought leader on everything from AI, the future world of work to diversity in recruitment. He has a bachelor's degree in psychology and economics.

"It feels really good to finally get going. JobAgent will use the technology of today and create a revolutionizing matching-service. Our vision is to develop and make potential available and that is really needed. We have enormous problems today on our labor-market which leads to exclusion, mental unhealth and a society where only some has the opportunity to use their potential. Studies shows over and over again that even your name is crucial when it comes to getting interviews and we also know that twice as many people that changed their job, wanted to change job but didn´t dare to apply – this is a huge societal failure," says Björn.
