PWN Norway is recruiting a Project Manager to join the events team in Oslo.
Role Description:
Our Oslo chapter holds an event nearly every month, occasionally two or three. The Project Manager leads one of these events from beginning to end. That includes gathering speaker and session details, securing and preparing the venue, arranging catering within an agreed budget, setting up and managing registration, sending confirmations and calendar invitations, and working with the marketing team so that the event is promoted across the website, social media, and the monthly member newsletter in good time. On the day, you arrive early to set up the space and refreshments, manage the registration desk, take photos, and return the room to its original condition afterward. In the days following, you send a thank-you message to attendees, hand photos and highlights to the marketing team, update the attendance record, and submit any receipts for reimbursement.
Alongside your own event, you attend most other Oslo events, support your fellow Project Managers with theirs, and contribute ideas to the wider events calendar.
This is a practical role with genuine ownership, well suited to someone who enjoys the work of making an event happen and wants to build experience within an established professional network.
We are looking for someone organized and dependable who follows through on deadlines, is comfortable coordinating with venues, speakers, suppliers, and members, and is careful in handling attendee information in line with data protection requirements. You should be based in Oslo and able to attend events in person, including arriving early for setup. Fluency in English is required and Norwegian is an advantage. Previous event experience is welcome but not essential.
The Project Manager reports to the VP Events Oslo and serves a one year term, renewable by mutual agreement. The expected time commitment is approximately 10 hours per month on average, with more required in the month you are leading an event. This is a voluntary, unpaid position.
Deadline:
ASAP! Applications will be reviewed, and interviews will be conducted on an ongoing basis.
