Unsporty / sporty project manager wanted

 


… Ie, it is not a requirement that you must like to sweat, but it can be hot when we arrange the Oslo Marathon, Norway's largest exercise race. Every September we fill the streets of Oslo with thousands of people who love to run, and maybe YOU want to help us with just this? And some other snacks then! 

Listen, we need a person to complement our small marathon family, which today consists of Cecilie, Bodil, Edwin and Stine. This four-leaf clover has enjoyed making a running party for over 20,000 participants each year. But when the pandemic swept over the country, we had to think anew, (we could of course turn off the lights, go home and wait for better times, but that's not how we are made) and several virtual races such as Romjulsløpet and the 17th mairaton arose after a brainstorm in the office . A physical Running Weekend at Vestlia Resort has also been created, and we work continuously to develop what we love to work with; to spread the joy of running to the people, regardless of level! 

SO who are you?

Since WE are a group that likes to do most things in-house, we need YOU to also thrive in a (sweet) potato role with many different tasks. We are looking for you who are raw in project work, ooze commitment and who also spread good energy to the team.
