Swedavia gives notice of 95 positions at its head office
Swedavia is making changes towards a more customer-focused and cost-effective operation in order to create better conditions for Swedish aviation. As a result, Swedavia is also adapting its organisation.
“We need to develop Arlanda as an international hub and create the conditions for a well-functioning airport network throughout Sweden. By simplifying our structure, prioritising our core mission and making more decisions closer to our customers, we will become more efficient. This also means that the number of positions within our support functions will decrease,” says Mats Johannesson, president and CEO of Swedavia, in a press statement.
The process of adapting and streamlining the organisation will begin immediately and is expected to be completed before the end of the year. In total, the equivalent of approximately 125 positions, including vacancies, are expected to be affected by the changes. Swedavia has therefore today issued redundancy notices affecting 95 positions, primarily at Swedavia’s head office in Stockholm.
“Our priority is for the process to be carried out in a respectful and responsible manner, with clear information and support for the employees affected,” says Mats Johannesson.
In 2025, the group had turnover of approximately SEK 6.8 billion and around 2,800 employees.
