Sondre is a dynamic and solutions-driven marketing professional, who is proficient, confident and determined to drive positive results. Sondre always operates at the highest professional levels, not only to reach maximum success with individual initiatives, but also in dealing with upward, lateral, and downward organizational communications. His ability to be assertive with honesty and tactful directness, is defining of his intelligence and person, which no doubt leads to the deserved respect he gains from anyone who is acquainted with him. He has the strong ability to identify what is needed to solve any given business issues presented to him, and is always open to communicate ideas to reach the best solutions. With his soothing demeanor he is able to exude calmness, stay focused and put everyone around him at ease even in the most stressful of times. I have found Sondre to be one of the more reliable colleagues I have ever had the pleasure to work with, with a strong and yet sensitive personality, making Sondre not only a reliable and trustworthy colleague, but also a friend I very much respect and appreciate.

      My role is to set strategic direction for Circle K's Loyalty program, Co-branded credit card and B2B Marketing and operating this across nine markets. The role requires combination of business understanding, good strategic skills and enough technical skills to find opportunities for the business. Further it requires strong communication and presentation skills to sell in the idea across multiple markets and across almost all of a business functions. Circle K's loyalty program in Europe, called EXTRA Club, is currently available in seven markets and have reached 3 million active customers just after 2,5 years. Through the loyalty program Circle K are able to collect information of more than 25 billion NOK in turnover, and the incremental effect of communication is more than 500 million NOK annually. The key guiding principles (and success) in the program is simplicity and relevance. Co-branded consumer cards at Circle K have seen a significant growth over the last four years. There has been a significant change in the use of Media channels to promote this product, where most of the media spent is now used through digital channels. This is one of the larger Co-branded credit card portfolios in Norway and Sweden. Circle K has one of the largest fleets of B2B customers in our markets. My responsibility is to create marketing strategy and create processes to effectively execute customer communication. The focus here is both on acquisition and retention. Show less

      My role within CIDC (acquired by BetClic in 2010) started with initiating a marketing and communication strategy to improve customer retention and value for all of their Online Poker and Casino products. In the period 2009-2011 a large number of customer lifecycle triggered messages was built in across the company’s communication platform (email, phone and Direct Mail). The triggers were based on events or behavioral changes – making communication more relevant and enabled us to engage more with our customers.My operational responsibilities included managing 11 people, owning a database consisting more than one million customers and delivering targeted communication in 16 different languages. Strategically my responsibilities were to initiate marketing and communication strategies to increase customer life time value, price optimisation, competitor analysis and understanding of customer behavioural patterns.
