Lightneer CEO Henri Lindgren: “Arctic HR has provided more peace of mind – and more headspace to concentrate on my own work”
Lightneer is a successful hybrid casual mobile game studio, developing and publishing hit games each year. Their games are fun, snackable, and rewarding, serving exactly what the audience desires: entertainment and stress relief. To date, Lightneer has amassed a total of 100 million players.
Lightneer is known from its dynamic company culture, which celebrates low hierarchy and minimal bureaucracy. Arctic HR has been Lightneer’s chosen partner for three years and counting, providing a consulting COO to the management team.
When the co-operation between Lightneer and Arctic HR started, Lightneer was envisioning an updated company culture following a period of turbulence. Ever since, Arctic HR has played a valuable supportive role as part of the management team. The focus of the cooperation has been on the financial management and concrete actions related to people operations, which have helped in shaping the company culture.
“Teemu has provided expertise and operative wisdom to our financial management. His impact on the company culture has been systematic and human-centric”, Lindgren says.
During the past years, Lightneer has been executing a significant change of strategy, transitioning towards independent publishing, and leaving out the conventional middle hands.
“This is a substantial and exciting shift for our company. It allows us to fully align with our own values and realize our full potential. Arctic HR has played a vital supportive role along the line. Teemu has been providing insightful guidance that is always practical – helping us to prioritize effectively”, Lindgren notes.
Arctic HR has also been involved in Lightneer’s people operations, handling the concrete action of headhunting and recruitment.
“Although we have our own people operations manager, Arctic HR has proved to be a great asset by providing external vision to our recruitment efforts. They have brought in great talent to our company”, Lindgren states.
As the committed collaboration between Lightneer and Arctic HR continues, Lindgren recommends Arctic HR to all companies looking to focus on their own excellence and growth:
“Personally, Arctic HR has provided more peace of mind and headspace to concentrate on my own work. Arctic HR is a group of skilled professionals who carry out their tasks in a dynamic manner. Their commitment to their own statement ‘better worklife, less bullshit’ is evident in everything they do.”
