Europe’s most dynamic job market

With billions currently being invested in a fossil-free future, our region is uniquely positioned to lead the world toward a sustainable transition. The green transition is expected to create some 50 000 new job opportunities, which means that our labour market needs competent people.

Few other places have the possibilities that the climate and natural resources in our county provide. The green transition will also create even more opportunities for our local economy to expand and evolve. A more developed local and regional economy will naturally lead to an increased need for experienced employees in all fields.

Kalix has the advantage of being a relatively small city with a business environment similar to that of much larger cities. The business environment is diverse and consists of more than 1200 businesses in a wide range of industries. Compared with the county and the rest of the country, a relatively large proportion of Kalix residents run their own businesses.
