Looking for an extremely driven individual to lead our Recruitment initiative

Have you ever felt like you’ve noticed a pattern in the customer service field — that the services offered were just suboptimal in one way or another, and you felt like you knew the ‘root’ of the problem? Have you ever had a desire to take control of things — whole industries, even — and turn them on their head, improving the way things work? And have you ever questioned why more and more services and entire organisations don’t operate online, given the reality of today’s digital world? If this sounds like you, then you might just be the person we’re looking for to join our team, as our Head of Recruitment - Norway.
