About the team

Meet the Talent Attraction team. We work across multiple markets to strengthen Nordea’s employer brand through campaigns, content, events, university partnerships and talent insights. Our role is to help Nordea attract the talent needed for the future and deliver on our ambition to become the preferred employer.

As part of the team, you will turn business needs, talent insights and expectations into activities that build awareness, engagement and long-term talent pipelines.

Collaboration. Ownership. Passion. Courage. These are the values that guide how we work and make decisions- and that we imagine you share with us.

With Norway as your primary market, you will drive local activations, manage university partnerships, coordinate events, and ensure Nordea has a strong and relevant presence among key talent groups.

Your key responsibilities: 

• Contribute to shared employer branding priorities and activations across Nordea, while translating them into relevant plans, campaigns, content and experiences for Norway. 
• Activate partnerships with selected universities and student organisations to strengthen junior talent pipelines and Nordea’s relevance among early-career talent. 
• Plan and coordinate career fairs, campus activities, company presentations and other employer branding events together with the business. 
• Engage and manage Nordea’s employer brand ambassador network in Norway, enabling colleagues to share authentic stories and represent our employer brand across relevant channels and activities. 
• Help shape shared concepts, campaigns and cross-country activations, while bringing market insight from Norway and contributing your skills and ideas to the wider team. 
• Build strong relationships with colleagues in Group People, Group Branding, Communication and Marketing, and Business Units/Group Functions to align priorities and respond to talent needs. 
• Use market insights and performance data to improve our work and help raise the bar for employer branding across Nordea. 

Who you are

To be successful in this role we believe that you are:

• Curious about people and talent trends 
• Passionate about creating authentic and engaging employer brand experiences 
• Comfortable moving between strategy, content creation, analytics, and stakeholder management 
• Proactive and eager to challenge existing ways of working 
• Collaborative, positive, and able to inspire others
• Combine hands-on execution with strategic thinking.  

Your background and skills include:

• Experience within employer branding, talent attraction, recruitment marketing, communications, or related areas 
• Strong project management skills and the ability to drive multiple initiatives simultaneously 
• Excellent communication and storytelling skills in Norwegian and English 
• A data-driven mindset and curiosity about what drives candidate behaviour 
• The ability to build trusted relationships with stakeholders at all levels 

It would be ideal if you also:

• Have experience working across multiple markets
• Have experience working with digital marketing and social media 

Why join us?

You will join a Talent Attraction team with the ambition to make Nordea the preferred employer in our industry.
