I am working with several projects on the Nordic market as a consultant. It can be full- or part time. Some of the projects I have done:

IT2Trust AS 2015 Part time

• develop a reseller network
• introduce the international vendors to the Norwegian market
• consult end users in our products

Varonis Systems: 2013-2014  – Full time
Nordic Sales Manager. Building the Nordic Market for Varonis solutions in Data Security, Data Governance and Big Data.

The Varonis Data Governance suite helps organizations manage and protect their unstructured and semi structured data—the documents, spreadsheets, presentations, media files and other business data in file servers, NAS devices, SharePoint and Exchange. These critical data assets are massive and growing rapidly. According to industry analysts:

• 80% of organizational data is unstructured
• Unstructured data will grow by 650% in the next five years

Even though these assets are growing and important, critical questions about them can’t be answered without Metadata Framework technology:

• Who has access to them?
• Who should and shouldn’t have access to them?
• Who uses them?
• Who abuses their access?
• Who owns them?
• Which are sensitive and exposed to risk?

The Varonis Data Governance Suite helps answer these urgent questions, aligns critical business assets with their proper owners, and empowers them with intelligence to make decisions about access controls and appropriate use, that are then executed without IT intervention.

Account Manager, Aquisition Manager, Large Opportunity Representative.

When I joined Dell in 1999, the call center for Dell in Copenhagen was just established. It was small with only 50 people from the 4 Nordic countries, and it was a strong entrepreneurial spirit around place. We wanted the same success as Dell was experiencing around the world.

In Norway, Dell No. 7. We had a rapid growth, and I was in charge of Acquisition and took over some of the greatest prospects in the SMB market. I was also the first LOR (Large opportunity representative) ever in the call center.

When I left, Dell was No. 1 in Norway it was a big call center with over 400 people. Interesting time, where I learned much about the nuances of the Nordic market
