• Develop and maintain the HMS management system, ensuring policies, risk assessments (SJA), and emergency plans comply with both Norwegian legislation (Arbeidsmiljøloven) and Bitdeer global standards.
• Lead risk management and incident investigations: Conduct job safety analyses for high-risk tasks (electrical, hot work, heights) and drive root-cause analysis for any deviations.
• Project & Construction Support: Act as the HSE representative for the AI data center project, collaborating with SHA-coordinators and contractors to ensure a safe transition from construction to live operations.
• Stakeholder Coordination: Act as the primary contact for authorities (Arbeidstilsynet) and lead internal safety forums, working closely with Verneombud and the AMU.

• End-to-End HR Support: Act as the local HR point of contact for employees and managers in Norway, handling everything from contract management and onboarding to offboarding.
• Recruitment & Talent Acquisition: Support hiring managers in scaling the Norwegian team, including job postings, screening candidates, and coordinating interviews for both technical and administrative roles.

• HR Administration & Compliance: Ensure HR data integrity in our systems and ensure all local personnel policies are up-to-date and aligned with Norwegian labor regulations.

• Legal Expertise: You have a deep understanding of Arbeidsmiljøloven and Internkontroll, and you can apply these rules practically to both physical safety and the psychosocial work environment.
• Communication: You are fluent in Norwegian and English. You can write a technical HMS procedure in the morning and lead an English-speaking HR workshop in the afternoon.

• Relationship Builder: You excel at building trust across the organization-from electricians and contractors to international leadership and HR colleagues.
• Problem Solver: You thrive in fast-paced, international environments. You don't just "follow" processes; you enjoy building them from the ground up as we scale our Norwegian operations.
• Education: A degree in HSE, HR, Business Administration, or Engineering is preferred. A combination of relevant experience and a "people-first" mindset is the most important factor.
