At Kongsberg Maritime, we believe that diversity fuels innovation.

What we are looking for:

We believe you have solid experience within crisis management, emergency preparedness, security, resilience or related disciplines, combined with the ability to translate frameworks and requirements into practical solutions.

Relevant experience may come from international industry, corporate security, emergency preparedness, defence, police, public authorities or consulting.
We are particularly interested in candidates who have:

• Experience with crisis management and emergency response in a complex organization.
• Experience developing crisis management plans, frameworks and response structures.
• Experience planning and facilitating exercises, training and scenario-based crisis management activities.

• are comfortable making progress when information is incomplete;
• communicate clearly with both management and operational teams;
• build trust and strong professional relationships;
• take initiative and drive improvement;
