Swedish fintech company Qred strengthens the management team and recruits a new Chief Product Officer (CPO). Marcus Uggla, who most recently worked at Klarna where he was a Senior Product Manager, joined Qred in June.

Stockholm, 30 June, 2021 - Qred, one of Sweden’s fastest growing companies, has during the past year hired more than 70 people. Now, the fintech company strengthens the management team with a new CPO; Marcus Uggla. Uggla, who most recently worked at  Klarna, will lead Qred’s product team. The team will in the near future focus on Qred’s recently launched credit card and develop more financial solutions for businesses.

“Qred’s growth journey has been fast and we have no plans to slow down. Marcus joins with a new perspective from an organization that has been through a similar growth phase like ours and will enable us to offer small business improved and completely new products within loans and payments,” says Emil Sunvisson, CEO at Qred.

Marcus also has a background as a Digital Director at Departments & Stores Europe and as COO at Campadre.

“Agile payment solutions and flexible financing for consumers have gotten a lot of attention from many, while the business side of things in many ways has been forgotten. I am very much looking forward to taking my insights from the consumer side of things and implementing them to offer optimized finance solutions for businesses too.” says Marcus Uggla, new CPO at Qred.
