This week, we are delighted to present Ola Gällstad.
Ola Gällstad currently serves as the Merchandise Manager at Malmö FF. Prior to this role, he spent five years as Event Manager and four years as Project Manager at the club. Before joining Malmö FF, he gained extensive experience in sales, having worked for eight years at Red Bull and nearly four years in retail at The Coca-Cola Company.
To begin our conversation, we asked Ola for his thoughts on the ESSMA EXCO concept. He expressed both pride and honour in being part of EXCO, as well as enthusiasm for driving key initiatives forward within ESSMA. He also highlighted the value of gaining insights from colleagues across the stadium industry and clubs throughout Europe.
Ola’s experience with ESSMA has been highly positive. He appreciates the open dialogue he is able to have with colleagues from both large and small clubs and stadiums. Furthermore, he finds it particularly valuable to build a network and exchange experiences that benefit all involved.
When asked about his contributions to the ESSMA EXCO, Ola provided an inspiring response. He aims to support the development of ESSMA while also working to highlight the needs and perspectives of medium-sized clubs and stadiums. Additionally, he is keen to explore the opportunities within women’s football, an area he believes holds great potential for further growth and development.
We are delighted to welcome Ola Gällstad to the ESSMA EXCO and look forward to his valuable contributions to the organisation.
