Recruitment and interim services for managers and specialists
About Brightmill
Brightmill is a leading partner in executive recruitment and qualified interim solutions, specialising in securing the right competence for managers and senior specialist roles. We act as a strategic adviser to companies facing business-critical challenges—whether that involves recruiting a permanent key person or quickly bringing in an experienced interim consultant to drive a transformation journey or cover an urgent gap.
Our strength lies in combining a modern, data-driven search methodology with deep human craftsmanship. By working exclusively with search, we reach the most suitable candidates in the market, including those who are not actively looking for a new job. With 15 years of experience and a strict competence-based recruitment process, we ensure that every match rests on an objective and quality-assured foundation.

Part of the Broviken Group
Since 2022, Brightmill has been a proud part of the Broviken Group, a stable and long-term partner focused on developing outstanding companies in the service sector. The Group consists of Swedish and Norwegian companies with a total of 2,500 employees and revenue of approximately SEK 5 billion. This ownership provides us with the financial security and resources required to be a long-term business partner for our clients, while we retain our speed and personal commitment in every single assignment.
Our way of working
With 15 years of market experience, we have refined a methodology where powerful, data-driven search meets deep human craftsmanship. We work exclusively through search to reach both active and passive candidates, and we apply a competence-based recruitment methodology to ensure an objective and quality-assured evaluation of both managers and senior specialists. We follow strict internal rules and industry agreements to guarantee transparency and structure in every process.
Responsibility and code of conduct
Brightmill is covered by the Broviken Group’s code of conduct, which provides guidance on how we act in everyday situations—in relation to employees, clients and other stakeholders. The code of conduct is based on the UN’s 10 principles for responsible business and includes, among other things:
- Human rights and fair working conditions.
- Health, working environment and safety: We must have a safe working environment and encourage reporting of deficiencies and risks.
- Diversity, equality and inclusion: Discrimination and harassment are never accepted.
- Environmental responsibility and responsible purchasing.
- Business ethics: Zero tolerance for bribery and corruption, and a focus on avoiding conflicts of interest.
Sustainability in practice
Sustainability is a natural part of how we work. Within the Broviken Group, sustainability efforts are carried out in a structured way and cover environmental and social perspectives as well as responsible business conduct. In practice, this means that we:
- Consider resource use and climate impact in how we work digitally and operationally.
- Strive for responsible purchasing and long-term supplier relationships.
- Take sustainability aspects into account in relation to clients and assignments.
Information security and privacy
We handle information with great care. Confidential information—such as business information, personal data and other sensitive data—is protected against unauthorised access and disclosure. Information belonging to external parties is protected just as carefully as our own. When we process personal data, we do so responsibly and in accordance with applicable data protection regulations (GDPR).
Whistleblowing and reporting
We want it to feel safe to speak up. Suspected misconduct or violations must be able to be reported without fear of negative consequences, and reports are handled seriously and confidentially.
Governance and compliance
As part of the Broviken Group, Brightmill is covered by Group-wide policies and ways of working. This means we have clear frameworks for, among other things, ethics, sustainability, information security and reporting – and that we work with follow-up on compliance.
