Conference and Event Resources
Welcome to Söderfors Herrgård—a historic manor house dating back to 1690, designed by the court architect Carl Hårleman, which has been transformed into a luxurious waterfront resort. Here, Swedish cultural heritage meets modern comfort, with a hotel, spa, restaurant, bar, and conference center that together create a unique experience.
We are looking for at least one conference and event coordinator—an exceptional team member who has what it takes to deliver a significant part of the experience guests have with us in Söderfors and at the Manor. We assume you live in the region and have access to a driver’s license and a car. Working here requires an appreciation for preserving a sense of history and a unique environment. We understand that our visitors choose us because of our manor house setting and all that it entails. Together with all our employees, we make it happen!
