Former Microsoft, SAP, and Workday Executive Joins to Support Quinyx’s Continued Growth

In a strategic move to accelerate our global expansion, Quinyx has appointed Fredrik Nylander as Chairman of the Board. A seasoned executive with over two decades of global leadership experience, Nylander has held executive roles at industry giants including Workday, Microsoft, SAP and Oracle.

Fredrik brings deep expertise in SaaS, Human Capital Management (HCM), and cloud technology, having played a pivotal role in scaling some of the world’s most successful enterprise software companies. Most notably, his leadership tenure at Workday, a pioneer in HCM software, positions him as an ideal fit for Quinyx as we continue to drive innovation in AI-driven workforce management solutions.


“Fredrik’s appointment marks a significant milestone as we celebrate our twentieth year in business. His extensive experience in go-to-market strategy and scaling high-growth technology companies will be instrumental as we continue to expand our footprint globally. We are thrilled to welcome him to the Quinyx team.”

Erik Fjellborg, Founder and CEO of Quinyx

 

In addition to his new role with Quinyx, Fredrik also serves on multiple Advisory Boards, and is the Chairman at Truesec. He succeeds Maria Ahr from Alfvén & Didrikson, who held the position for the past ten years.

“Quinyx is uniquely positioned to help organizations navigate today’s dynamic workforce challenges. With its innovative AI-driven platform and global presence, the company shares many synergies with the tech leaders I’ve worked with. I’m excited to support Quinyx in this next chapter of growth.”
