Country Manager and leadership recruitment in industry

Targeted search and assessment of senior leadership candidates for industrial companies — with international network and local knowledge.

Recruiting a Country Manager or senior leader for an industrial company requires more than a strong CV. The candidate must be able to drive results in the Norwegian market while reporting into an international structure and understanding demanding operational and commercial frameworks.

As Country Manager Norway for Pedersen & Partners' Industrial Practice, I work with this type of mandate on a daily basis — for international companies establishing or strengthening their Norwegian operations, and for Norwegian industrial companies looking for their next senior leader.

The search combines an international network through Pedersen & Partners' 54 wholly owned offices in 50 countries with local knowledge of the Norwegian market and the industrial sector specifically. The process includes structured interviews and, where relevant, certified assessment as a supplement to the evaluation.

Mandates
