Why Nordic Executive List exists

Nordic Executive List started as a personal tool. As a senior executive actively exploring his next role, Johan spent too many mornings manually checking headhunter websites one by one. He had built and led companies across the Nordics for 20 years — there had to be a smarter way to run a job search.

So he automated the process. What began as a Python script for personal use quickly became a service other executives were asking for. Today, Nordic Executive List scans 97 executive search firms every morning and delivers matching roles straight to your inbox.

How it works

Every morning, our pipeline automatically scans the websites of 97 executive search firms. New executive roles are identified, classified by industry, geography, and work mode (hybrid, remote, on-site), and matched against your preferences.

Matching roles are delivered to your inbox before 07:00 CET. No manual searching, no missed roles — you see exactly the positions that match your profile.

Who it's for

Nordic Executive List is designed for active and passive executive job seekers — CEOs, CFOs, COOs, directors, department heads, and interim managers focused on the Nordic market.

The service is built by an executive, for executives. We understand that an executive job search demands discretion, efficiency, and access to the right channels — not mass emails from generic job boards.

The company

Nordic Executive List is operated by Celxius AB (reg. no. 559288-1220), based in Stockholm, Sweden. The company was founded in 2025.

Privacy & data

We never sell your data. All executive roles we monitor are publicly listed on each search firm's website. Your email address and preferences are used solely to deliver the service.
