As CEO Operations Associate, you will work directly with the CEO and gain a close view of how leadership decisions are made and how different parts of the company work together.\nThis is a varied role. One day you may prepare materials for an important meeting, and the next help resolve a practical issue or turn a new idea into a clear plan. By keeping meetings, documents, travel and follow-up running smoothly, you will increase the CEO's execution capacity and create more time for capital raising, customers, strategic priorities and leadership.\nThis is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys turning ideas and instructions into action. Although this is not a strategy or traditional Chief of Staff position, you will contribute to important initiatives by helping shape ideas into practical plans, processes and deliverables. Priorities can sometimes change quickly, so the role suits someone who enjoys variety, learns fast and responds calmly when plans evolve.\nNormal working hours are the default. The role requires above-average flexibility, as travel, events and time-sensitive work may occasionally require availability outside normal working hours, including afternoons and evenings. Where possible, this will be planned in advance.\nWhat you'll do\nDocuments and meeting preparation\nWork closely with the CEO to prepare first drafts of presentations, reports, documents and correspondence, and refine them promptly after meetings, calls, written feedback or voice notes.\n\nPrepare agendas, briefing materials and background notes so the CEO can approach important meetings with the right context, documents and practical details.\n\nTake part in selected meetings, capture key instructions and decisions, and help turn the discussion into clear next steps and useful follow-up materials.\n\nCalendar and travel planning\nCoordinate the CEO's calendar around agreed priorities, suggesting practical meeting times, resolving conflicts and making sure rooms, links, participants and materials are in place.\n\nPlan and book travel, including flights, hotels, ground transport and itineraries, and join the CEO on selected trips to destinations such as Oslo, New York and London.\n\nCollaboration and follow-up\nKeep track of instructions shared in conversation, through voice notes, in Teams or by email, and provide clear updates as assignments move forward and are completed.\n\nWork with colleagues across Finance, People & Culture, Legal, Communications and other functions, building a broad understanding of the business while gathering the input needed for CEO deliverables.\n\nTools and better ways of working\nUse Copilot agents and other AI tools to support drafting, organise information, compare versions and develop helpful templates and checklists.\n\nIdentify processes that could work better and help create simpler, more effective ways of working.\n\nAbout you\nYou are sharp, curious and quick to learn, and you genuinely enjoy making things work. You may be a recent graduate or have a few years of professional experience. What matters most is learning speed, structure, judgement, attention to detail and the ability to turn instructions into useful output.\nWe believe you will bring:\nExceptional learning speed and the ability to turn short or incomplete instructions into clear actions and useful output.\n\nStrong organisational skills, personal task discipline and high attention to detail.\n\nSound judgement about when to proceed, when to ask a focused question and when to flag a risk.\n\nStrong written and spoken communication, with professional fluency in Norwegian and English.\n\nThe ability to stay calm under pressure and take direct feedback.\n\nComplete discretion when handling confidential information.\n\nComfort using Copilot and other AI tools.\n\nBonus skills or experiences:\nExperience from a startup, scale-up, project-driven or international organisation.\n\nA demanding internship, graduate position or early-career role with substantial responsibility.\n\nWhat success looks like\nWithin the first few months, the CEO trusts that when something is handed to you, it gets done. Meetings are prepared, materials are accurate and ready for review, travel runs smoothly and important follow-up stays on track. As you work across the company, you build a broad understanding of the business and develop strong working relationships with different teams. As trust grows, you take on more responsibility, from gathering input and improving processes to finalising selected deliverables.\nWhy Fossefall?\nFossefall is building for long-term growth, which means many important ways of working are still being shaped. Joining now means having the opportunity to influence how the organisation grows, how teams collaborate and how high-quality work gets done. You will work close to capable colleagues, contribute to meaningful priorities and help build something that can last.\nAbout Fossefall\nFossefall is a Nordic AI infrastructure company founded in 2025. We develop and operate AI factories powered by renewable energy, turning clean Nordic power into scalable, sovereign computing capacity for Europe, built in partnership with local communities, energy producers and technology leaders across the world.
