Visma Software Nordic is looking for a seasoned, forward-leaning brand and marketing leader to take on the newly established role as Nordic Head of Brand &amp; Marketing. In this role, you will be responsible for building a modern, scalable and insight-driven brand and marketing function across the Nordics, at a time when the company is preparing for a full rebranding and ambitious cloud-driven growth agenda.

After three months:You’ve developed a solid understanding of the marketing landscape and started shaping ideas for a Nordic marketing approach. Early work on an operational brand platform is in motion, and you’ve outlined initial concepts for channel and partner activation.

</li><li>
After one year: Your marketing strategy is taking root, and tangible progress is visible. The brand is gaining clarity, recognition, and strength in the market. Campaigns are aligned, partner engagement is growing, and our marketing activities are becoming more focused and efficient. We’re moving confidently toward being recognized as one of the leading SaaS brands in the Nordics.
</li></ul>
What we’re looking for
You are a strategic thinker with strong execution skills and a deep understanding of brand management, marketing operations and commercial collaboration.
