Vacant job

We are looking for a business-driven salesperson who wants to help drive Vasakronan's coworking initiative Arena forward in Gothenburg. The assignment is temporary (3–6 months) and is suitable for you who, with forward-thinking and openness, enjoys building relationships, finding new ways into the market, and creating business opportunities. With your reliability and ability to create stable collaborations, you contribute to developing one of Sweden's most modern coworking concepts.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Vasakronan is Sweden's leading real estate company, owning, managing, and developing centrally located office and retail properties in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, and Uppsala. The vision is the good city where all people thrive and businesses develop. With a strong sustainability focus and the desire to bring people together, Vasakronan builds meeting places for everyone to thrive, work, and socialize.

In addition to traditional office spaces, Vasakronan offers various office concepts to create high customer value, such as fully furnished offices, coworking, and service offerings to create truly great workplaces with all the knowledge built-in.

Vasakronan Arena – cutting-edge coworking

Vasakronan Arena is the real estate company's own coworking concept launched in 2019. Gothenburg was the first with a pilot arena – and today both Arena Platinan and Arena Läppstiftet exist in the city. The concept has since grown with Arena Triangeln in Malmö, Magasin X in Uppsala, and Arena Sergel and Arena Skrapan in Stockholm.

The arenas are strategically located in some of the country's best locations and are based on Vasakronan's strengths: a broad customer base, extensive experience in office development, and a strong sustainability focus. The result is a coworking concept where productivity, flexibility, and service are at the center – a place where companies can grow, collaborate, and develop.

You thrive in an outgoing role where you get to make calls, book meetings, and network to create new opportunities. With determination, you take the initiative and are not afraid to open doors, even when it requires a cold call.

You have previous experience in sales or business development, preferably within real estate, coworking, office, hotel, or other services where hospitality and customer relationships are central. Most importantly, you are motivated by creating business, have a high activity level, and can quickly understand a new offering.

As a person, you are communicative, trustworthy, and structured in your work approach. You see opportunities, have a strong internal drive, and are motivated by delivering results in a short time.

Experiences you bring with you:

• Previous experience in sales, new customer acquisition, and business development
• Experience in making calls, booking meetings, and building relationships with new customers.
• Experience from industries such as coworking, office, real estate, hotel, events, or similar service areas is an advantage.
