Bio
Stephen Craig
Thor has all the skills needed in Search Marketing, first working as a creative editorial and then as an Account manager he used his great eye for detail and sales skills to manage some of the largest clients in the Nordic region. Mix in his obvious intelligence and commitment to hard work led him to becoming a very valuable member of the team who was always willing to learn and accept new challenges.

I have had the pleasure of watching Thor grow at Y! over the last 2 + years. His work on the Scandinavian markets has been very valuable to the business. His strength is in building relationships with his clients, with a focus on results. Recently we asked Thor to take on significantly more responsibility in managing the top clients in the Scandinavian markets. He adapted quickly and has been very effective in the role. I would recommend Thor to any employer looking for a dedicated employee who is not only a valuable partner for your clients (results) but a great employee for your culture (great attitude).

I've been working extremely close with Thor Christian at Yahoo! for over a year now and I find him to be an excellent and dedicated colleague. Since the day he joined our team he threw himself straight into the role, suggested solutions for improvement areas and showed full commitment to our advertisers. Today he is working with some of the biggest brands in the Nordic region and is always aiming to improve the results for our advertisers. It doesn’t matter whether it’s suggesting growth areas to acquire more traffic in order to drive and gain incremental intrests/revenues or if it is to clean up campaigns to make sure that brands are being represented and perceived as they should in our network – he will do anything in his power to make sure that their campaigns with us are set for long term success.
