Finance Manager to Grundéns, Borås

Carl Grundén began producing waterproof oilskins in 1911 for the fishermen of the North Sea in Grundsund, Sweden. Material Shortages of WWI forced the company to close but in 1926 Grundén Regnkläder AB was founded and has been producing quality gear ever since. Built by fishermen then, Grundéns’ way of thinking today carries this tradition. We believe in preparation for the trip, respect for nature’s beauty and power, the love of adventure, and challenging exploration. We believe anyone can experience life’s purest and rawest moments with the right tools. Working at Grundéns is no different. It’s about finding purpose and performance in all conditions, and we work to enable people doing just that. These are our roots and this is our future.
