We're looking for a visionary leader to shape and orchestrate a world-class sales organization—one that sets the benchmark for excellence in the industry. This role blends strategic program leadership with cultural stewardship, driving initiatives that accelerate performance while fostering a culture of accountability, collaboration, and pride. As the impulse and orchestrator of excellence, you'll ensure our sales organization is not only high-performing but recognized as a "sales school" for the market.

- Orchestrate cross-functional initiatives with Enablement, Marketing, Product, Industry Leads, and RevOps to ensure alignment and success.
- Build structured frameworks—programs, plays, campaigns—that set benchmarks for sales excellence.
- Establish governance, accountability, and incentive systems to measure, report, and continuously improve outcomes.
Community & Culture Building
- Cultivate a culture of accountability, resilience, and contribution across the sales organization.
- Embed shared values and rituals inspired by top-performing teams to foster cohesion and belonging.
- Promote peer learning, cross-team collaboration, and recognition as everyday practices.
- Position the sales organization as a market benchmark for discipline, professionalism, and results.
Orchestration & Influence
- Act as the strategic and cultural bridge between leadership vision and frontline execution.
- Inspire and motivate through clear articulation of values, vision, and standards.
- Serve as the voice of the sales community, elevating field insights into strategic decisions.
- Model excellence and accountability—setting the tone for what "great" looks like.
What We're Looking For
- 15+ years in SaaS/Technology sales leadership, programs, enablement, or strategic orchestration roles.
- Deep experience with enterprise sales programs at leading companies (Microsoft, AWS, Salesforce, SAP, Google, Adobe).
- Proven ability to shape culture and instill accountability in high-performance teams.
- Strong capability to translate vision into structured programs and cultural rituals.
- Exceptional communication and influence skills; able to inspire and align diverse stakeholders.
- A "sales coach" mindset—fostering growth, discipline, and pride.
- Passion for building not just a sales organization, but a sales institution recognized for excellence.
We offer:
- A Collaborative & Inclusive Culture where we celebrate and value everyone's contributions, encouraging diverse perspectives in decision-making.
- Work-Life Balance & Well-being: We offer 1 hour per week of paid exercise, and a generous pension plan, prioritizing your mental and physical well-being.
- A Creative and Safe Workplace by joining a company experiencing rapid growth, with the stability of being Norway's first unicorn listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange.
- International and Supportive Environment within a Norwegian multinational that values collaboration and innovation with a structured onboarding plan and career opportunities within the company
