Working Life
We spend a lot of time at work, so what is it like here?
You will be based in Oslo with a team that searches for talent across Norway. We offer hybrid working so people can meet their work commitments while balancing their personal lives when required. We employ high performers and everyone lives our values, so we trust them to do what’s right.
When new starters – whatever their experience – first join us they will spend most of their time in the office with their team. That’s the best way to experience our culture, work closely together, and learn our ways of working.
Creating a great place to work
Informal and busy
It’s informal here. It’s busy. It’s competitive and we want it to be fun. Consultants make a lot of phone calls, meet many clients and candidates, and generate their own business. They have monthly targets to achieve, based on their experience and tenure. Our Managers work closely with each Consultant to help them achieve this.
Each Consultant focuses on a specific discipline and/or sector and location, ensuring clients and candidates always work with experienced and knowledgeable specialists. Personal development is at the top of everyone’s agenda. After all, Managers only succeed if their team succeeds.
Competitive
We’re competitive and want to win – but in the right way. Not at the expense of our colleagues and never without taking a long-term client perspective. Making mutually beneficial decisions between us and our clients is important. Maintaining client loyalty is always at the forefront of our minds.
Communicative
It’s hard to keep everyone updated about everything all the time. People want to know different things. When it comes to internal communication, we use different methods in efforts to ensure everyone is kept up to date with what’s important, as frequently as is practical. Feedback from our colleagues says we’ve got it about right.
Teamwork
We believe our approach to teamwork is different to most firms in our industry. We generate significant value by openly sharing knowledge, leads and contacts between all our people - within their team, between other teams, across offices and throughout our European network.
Likeminded, enthusiastic colleagues make this a great place to work. This is how our people tell us they feel:
- I am comfortable approaching my Manager with a question or concern
- I am motivated to do my best
- I feel part of Nigel Wright Group
- I feel valued by my Manager
- I am inspired to fulfil my potential
- I feel valued at Nigel Wright Group
