Stockholm, 17 October 2022 — Zimpler, a leading fintech company born in Sweden, expands its marketing unit and appoints Maria Frändegård as Head of Communications. Maria’s most recent role was at Systembolaget as their Head of Press. Before that, she worked with other major brands such as Swedbank, PayEx, TryggHansa and PostNord.

Chief Growth Officer Nicolas Köllerstedt, comments on the new hire: “Through her extensive experience, Maria will lead the work in the Nordics as well as in our global markets as Head of Communications and be a key person in the growth journey we are currently on. Maintaining our dialogues in our active and new markets and continuing to communicate Zimpler’s mission and vision is vital for the continuity of our expansion.”
