At Eidsiva, we ensure that lights stay on, homes and communities stay warm, and that people and businesses have access to stable internet and other critical infrastructure they depend on every single day. At the same time, we want to be a positive force in the communities we’re part of.
That’s why we believe that good sponsorships are about more than just visibility. They should foster engagement, build relationships, and contribute to vibrant local communities. Are you the person who can bring people, networks, and partnerships together to create even greater value?
As Sponsorship Manager, you will be a key driver in managing and further developing Eidsiva’s sponsorship portfolio. Here, you’ll oversee some of our largest and most high-profile partnership agreements, while also being responsible for a broad portfolio of 160 partnerships that mean a great deal to the local communities we’re part of.
You’ll serve as a key bridge between our partners and the Group’s business areas, helping to ensure that sponsorships are actively used to strengthen relationships, reputation, and visibility.
The position is based at our headquarters in Hamar, and you’ll be part of our newly established brand and marketing communications team. Here, the path from idea to execution is short, and there are excellent opportunities for professional collaboration. To build strong relationships and get the most out of our partnerships, it’s important that you’re able to attend relevant events, which are occasionally held in the evenings and on weekends.
Are you the person who can create even more value from our partnerships?
Some of your key responsibilities
You will build strong partnerships and develop collaborations that create value for both Eidsiva and our partners.
You will be responsible for the ongoing management of our sponsorship agreements, from planning and coordination to implementation and evaluation.
Maximize the internal impact of our sponsorships by connecting people, environments, and opportunities across the group.
Plan and execute marketing activities, events, and sponsorship activations.
Follow up on VIP events and other deliverables related to the sponsorship portfolio.
Who are you?
At Eidsiva, we’re curious about who you are, the environments where you thrive, and what you can contribute to our social mission. We don’t expect you to check off every item in the job description before expressing your interest.
The most important thing is that you understand how sponsorships can build a brand, foster engagement, and create value for multiple stakeholders at the same time. You enjoy building networks, get energized by meeting people, and collaborate well with both internal teams and external partners. To succeed in this role, it’s also important that you communicate effectively and convey messages clearly and confidently, both verbally and in writing in Norwegian.
You thrive in an independent role where you combine structure and execution with an eye for the opportunities inherent in strong collaborations. One day you might be visiting a partner or attending a networking event. The next, you’ll be working on contract follow-up, planning, or coordination across the organization.
Perhaps you have experience in sponsorship, partner relations, marketing, events, account management, or other roles where relationships and value creation are central. You are goal-oriented and see opportunities where others see agreements, and you get energy from turning good ideas into activities that deliver results.
Why join Eidsiva?
With us, you’ll have a rare opportunity to take ownership of and further develop the sponsorship area within a group where we care—about each other, about society, and about the future. You’ll work on collaborations that matter to both local communities and Eidsiva, and you’ll have considerable freedom to shape your day-to-day work within the scope of your role.
You’ll become part of a social and inclusive community where we view people as the most important driving force behind our social mission.
You’ll be part of a company that facilitates flexible solutions to accommodate different life situations.
It goes without saying that you’ll enjoy competitive terms, solid pension and insurance plans, coverage for your cell phone and broadband support, a fitness allowance, occupational health services, and a subsidized lunch program in a tasteful cafeteria.
Membership in the company sports club, which offers a wide variety of activities ranging from padel, yoga, kayaking, climbing, kiting, and more.
Recharge after work with access to several company cabins, season passes, and tickets to cultural and sporting events.
We’re excited to learn more about you and look forward to telling you why working at Eidsiva is so rewarding. That’s why we hope you’ll give us a good insight into your motivation and experience relevant to the position by answering two questions and uploading any diplomas or certificates via the application portal. A cover letter is not required.
