Mathias
Mattsson

I am 32 years old, a trained sea captain, and I work daily as a chartering manager at Meriaura. Alongside my work, I am actively involved in politics – I serve as the chairman of the Swedish People's Party’s local branch in Turku and am also a member of the party council. Additionally, I am a member of the Swedish section of the Committee for Education.

Societal issues have always interested me, but my political engagement deepened when I wanted to take part in shaping Turku’s development. I see it as my mission to work towards a city where all children have a safe and modern learning environment, where businesses have the best possible conditions to thrive, and where the city continues to grow in a sustainable and inclusive way.

I live in Portsa with my wife, Jenny, and I truly appreciate the unique urban atmosphere of Turku. During the summer, sailing is one of my greatest passions, and I feel most at home at sea.

I want to be part of making Turku an even better city for both current and future generations!
